Hey Everyone! I don’t think anyone from this crew ran the Spring Run off this past weekend. Fair enough because it still doesn’t quite feel like Spring. It’s got to be just around the corner… this weekend I think. I’ve been having conversations with friends who were runners in my era in high school (early […]
Hey Gang! Huge congrats to Laura and Zoë who ran the 800m in the last indoor meet of the season! Bring track back I say! Some of us will be doing some track training for the spring/summer. If you’re interested in joining, please message me. There are many twilight meets over the summer which are […]
Hi Everyone! Huge congrats to Cheryl (again!) this time for the NYC Half Marathon! Cheryl cut 7 minutes off her time from two years ago (so no slowing down with age excuses here!) and executed a beautiful negative split to nail her process goal as well. Way to go Cheryl! Also here in Toronto […]
Hi Gang! Huge congrats to Leigh Anne who ran the Myrtle Beach marathon in a BQ time and came in 2nd in her age group in very humid conditions! Guys, I won’t say anything about the weather or footing because I seem to curse it every single time I do, but …. Wheeeee – this […]
Hey Gang! Huge congrats to our Chilly Half Marathoners! This Sunday in very sub-zero temps we had: Erin, Laura, Samantha, Shauna, Rob Dunne, David Steinberg, Monica and myself all running the half. Great job everyone – that was a fun, cold and challenging day – much better with friends! I’ve been having “season recap” calls […]
Hi Everyone! First of all I was remiss in leaving out Cheryl’s results from the Palm Springs Half Marathon the other weekend! Cheryl ran less than a minute off her almost 10 yr old PB (so post-kids PB!), ran 7 minutes faster than last year, and came 3rd in her age group. Congrats Cheryl!! A […]
Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a great Family Day long weekend! Omigosh running with clear footing and good traction is a gift, isn’t it? Coming through hard things really does make you appreciate the better times when they arrive. Not to be overly dramatic about our winter weather. Lately I’ve been thinking about […]
Hey Gang! Happy end-of-the-cold-snap! I mean, it’s not warm, but it doesn’t feel life threatening anymore. I think we’re gonna make it, even though it snowed again and the footing still sucks. Way to go everyone for getting on with the show thus far – if you’re like me it may have taken a […]
Hi Everyone! We made it through January! Congrats to all of us. That was one long month. Here’s hoping February is a little smoother and a little warmer for all of us. If nothing else it will be shorter. I feel like we’re through the worst of it, but please don’t blame me if I’ve […]
Hey Gang! Hope you’re all dug-out of wherever you’ve been and have recovered if you were the digger-outer! All jokes aside, shoveling IS a physical activity and probably requires the same attention as a gym session in terms of warming up, easing into it, taking breaks, not overdoing it, fueling, and recovering. It sounds […]
