Hi Everyone! Huge congrats to Cheryl who ran the Denver half marathon, and paced her friend to a giant PB! I love that. Way to share your energy. In fact, that brings me to what I’ve been thinking about this week: competitiveness vs generosity of spirit. I’ve been watching high school track meets recently, because […]
Hey All! Huge congrats to all the mamas who ran the Sporting Life10K! Madalyn, Steph, Lyndsay, Michelle S and Michelle P (who runs w us virtually). Wohoo!!! Super speedy times out there! This week I’ve been thinking about ageing – and what it means to keep trying hard as I get slower. It’s an interesting […]

In Toronto, Ian Gray ran his first ever marathon! And Jen and Colette ran the half! Way to go everyone! I […]
Hey Everyone! What another great weekend of racing! In the Mississauga Half, our very own Kerry K ran 1:40 and came in first in her age group!!! Proving that strength = fitness. Don’t shirk your circuits! And in the Bum Run, Jeff Smith ran 18:44, coming in 1st in his age group! This weekend we […]
Hi Everyone! Huge congrats to everyone who ran the Boston Marathon yesterday!!! Elizabeth, Fran, Annick, Amanda, Lori (PB!), Cindy, Carolyn, Jon, Miguel, Gillian! Way to flippin GOOOOO everyone!

Coming up, we have the Boston Marathon! From our group we have: Gillian, Fran, Amanda, Annick, Laura, Cindy, Lori, Carolyn, Jon, […]
Hey Gang! Huge congrats to those who raced this weekend! Chris Fortin just missed the sub-19 min mark by seconds at the Spring Run Off. When there are no massive hills and no gale force winds, he’ll sail right under it. Monica ran the 8K there and came 4th in her age group. In the […]
Hi Gang! Huge congrats to those who ran ATB! Which turned out to be Kerry who came 4th in her AG in the 15K, and Jeff and Jason who did the 30K! Colette was taken out by a virus before the race, and Jordan was too, but gamely tried until I think about 20K. This […]
Hey Gang! Pretty sure there were no races this past weekend. Lots of stellar long runs though! Coming up we have Around the Bay this weekend. I believe we have Colette, Kerry and Jeff running it (anyone I’m missing?) Good luck and have fun! So far it looks like the weather will be very Around-The-Bay-y. […]
Hi Everyone! A few snowbanks left, but boy does it feel good to be able to run with sure footing. The little things we take for granted. If you were away for March Break, welcome back. If you stayed in the city, hopefully it still feels like you’ve turned a page of sorts and are […]
