Canada’s health and fitness bloggers are in a league of their own. It’s not easy getting motivated to workout or go running outdoors in the freezing conditions for which the country is unfortunately known. So keep an eye out for these inspiration bloggers across Canada, who share fitness tips and healthy recipes weekly.

Carmy

Carmy’s blog motto is “run, eat, travel.” The Toronto-based blogger writes about her love of fitness (and in particular running) and shares healthy recipes and the travel memories she prefers to collect over things. Carmy also has separate Instagram accounts for her different passions, including @curiouslychasing for her travel photos; @runcarmyrun for fitness; and @carmyshungry for foodie inspiration.

Health and Swellness

Karen Kwan is another blogger from Toronto. She admits on her blog’s “About” page: “What I do believe in is having healthy overall balance in one’s life. That’s where the ‘swellness’ comes into play.” On Health and Swellness, her goal is to share health news, fun workouts, healthy dishes and tech gear reviews that will “help you live a healthier lifestyle.”

She became hooked on running in university, and since then, she has completed everything from 5Ks to full marathons. Along with fitness posts, Christina also features healthy recipes on her blog, as she says: “Eat whole, nutritious food and you will crave whole, nutritious food.” She even has a Races tab in her menu that lists her previous and upcoming running races, for that extra dose of inspiration.
