Charity Miles for Every Mother Counts

emc2_logo

In November, the Oiselle team is raising funds for Every Mother Counts and you can help!

Every Mother Counts  (EMC) is a campaign to end preventable deaths caused by pregnancy and childbirth around the world by informing, engaging, and mobilizing new audiences to take action to improve the health and well-being of girls and women worldwide. The organization was founded by Supermodel Christy Turlington in 2010 after years of activism in the realm of women’s pre and postnatal health (read Christy’s interesting journey here – she seems SO down to earth and totally cool!).

Although in the United States we have access to wonderful pre and post natal care, pregnancy and birth is still a serious and dangerous journey. In countries without easy and affordable access to health care and hospitals, the process of bringing a life into the world is even more life threatening. Every Mother Counts is working toward making it safer for mothers everywhere.

One of the ways that you and I can help the cause is to download the app Charity Miles and begin tracking our miles for the cause. The goal is for everyone to run 26 of the 30 days in November (or at least track 1 mile per day –  even if it’s just walking!). For every mile run, 25 cents will be donated to Every Mother Counts.

Physical distance (proximity to a hospital, etc) is the greatest barrier for women to get the pre and post natal care they need and with running we will do what we can to reduce that barrier. The kick off for the Oiselle-Every Mother Counts fundraiser was November 1 but it isn’t too late to download the app and start tracking your miles now! Bonus points for tweeting your miles to spread the word!

Welcome to My Blog!

Nicole Dobransky

I’m Nicole. I’m a runner, mom to three girls (including twins!), and fitness lover who attempts to live a life of balance as a pizza, craft beer and coffee lover. I live and train near the ocean in San Diego and always keep it real here – there are lots of failures along with my successes in these pages, but what you’ll never see me do is give up!

I am a former accountant who started this blog from a place of absolute passion and love for health and fitness. I’ve now turned it into a way for me to reach and help more people as a health & fitness coach & it’s my mission to help as many women as possible achieve their own goals. I’ve brought hundreds of women into my community and helped them gain confidence and happiness through either my monthly accountability groups or by following their dreams as an online coach as well!

If you’d like to reach out to me for any reason, contact me at fitnessfataleblog at gmail dot com!

I’d Love To Help You Achieve Your Goals!

I am a health and fitness coach. I run monthly challenge groups which provide daily accountability and guidance through your journey to achieve your own personal goals.

If you're a runner who is looking to mix in strength training, don't hesitate to reach out! You can compliment your running by including a modified version of any of the programs with your running schedule.

Upcoming Groups:

February 11th: 4 Week Virtual Accountability Group - Transform:20, 21 Day Fix, 80 Day Obsession, LIIFT4 or any other program.

Ongoing: Pregnancy and Postpartum Support Group
