Happy holidays to everyone! As we continue to make our way through this wonderful time of year, we thought it fitting to share a story that exemplifies the spirit of the holiday season. To do so, we're going to be speaking with Kim Gleim, a teacher at Nutana Collegiate. Kim is a runner, who has begun a running program for students at Nutana.

Brainsport sales associate, Donna Galus, has plenty of ideas for you - so let's get to it!  Q&A with Donna Galus Tara: With the holiday season underway, gift hunting has begun. What are some the first items in-store that come to mind when you think of holiday gift ideas this year?  Donna: Winter running gear, such as reflective gear, and winter running shoes are always great choices!
