As the owner of my own successful construction company, & a wife & a mother of three boys (with the oldest seven & the youngest just about to turn two) - finding time to exercise, eat healthy, & relax seemed impossible let alone exhausting! Carrying three baby's full term had done a number on my body & my back, not to mention I had held onto a few extra pounds with each pregnancy. I not only felt unattractive but I was tired all the time.

I was 41, 30 lbs over weight & terribly out of shape. My once fairly fit, strong body was far from it - I had loose/extra skin & fat, weak/limp muscles, & cellulite (in places I never new you could get cellulite). Not to mention I had aches & pains all over, not just here & there. Never would I dare be seen in anything sleeveless & I went years where I felt embarrassed if anyone but my family saw me in a bathing suit. I blamed a lot of it on the fact that I was over forty. Come on - who doesn't gain weight as they get older, & isn't it a fact that loosing weight, let alone being fit, is allot harder when you get older!

As hard as I may, I tried to exercise whenever I could, & I watched what I ate, but to no avail I seemed destined be over weight & out of shape.

Desperate, I signed up for 'Weight Watchers' & realized that, though I thought I was eating well - I was - but just a little too well! I can't say enough about 'Weight Watchers' it has really helped me change the way I look at food & how I approach eating. I don't diet - I just watch what I eat! (I tell you this because, as I developed the "Keen-Fit Walking System" how you feed your body is very much a part of its' success.)

I finally started going in the right direction. I was watching what I was eating & I was starting to lose weight, but I still felt sluggish, tiered & out of shape. With juggling my full time business & busy family I had little time, energy & extra money to get into shape. Walking was all I had the time or money for, but just walking seemed to have little effect on how I looked & felt.

It was a trip to Europe that introduced me to 'Fitness/Nordic Walking' & I brought home a pair of 'walking poles'. I was excited to put them to work - but was blown away by the results they produced! Not only was it easy (at first I thought it was maybe too easy, you know - "no pain/no gain!") but once I got a rhythm going, my whole body felt almost energized, as the poles seemed to propel me forward.

It truly didn't take long for me to notice a difference between walking without poles & walking with them - my fat just fell off! It was amazing, within weeks I felt stronger & definitely tighter! The funny thing was I wasn't walking any further or any faster but yet WOW -I couldn't get over what was happening to what seemed was every inch of body! And I had so much more energy, not to mention experiencing & watching my body take on its' new shape helped me feel so much better about myself (for the first time in a long time I actually felt sexy! - I had arms like Madonna& I wasn't even lifting weights!)

Everyone who knew me - noticed the new me & when I mentioned 'pole walking' I was shocked at how no one had even heard about it, let alone knew what I was talking about. After I started researching 'pole walking' further it wasn't long before I realized how important it was that I continue to pass on, & introduce others to, the benefits of this more than well kept secret!

It was then I made it "My Mission to raise the fitness level of North America - One stride at a time". It was not long ago that I, like many North Americans, was too busy, overweight & exhausted - I thought - why not allow everyone who walks to enjoy the amazing benefits of this fun, simple, full-body exercise!
