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 […]
Hi Everyone! Well this past weekend was finally an ok one for running! Yes, there were still patches of ice/puddles, but we’re coming through and running is already so much more enjoyable than it has been. Thank goodness because I was kind of forgetting that I even liked running! Now I’ve had a few days […]
Hi Everyone! HUGE congrats to all who ran the very Chilly Chilly Half this Sunday! Brianna (PB and 3rd in AG), Erin, Colette (PB), Lori (PB), Leigh Anne (PB), Carol, Annick, Avia, Meagan, Fran, Anna and Jason. I saw many pictures of this crew together before and after the race, and it just warmed my […]
Hey Gang! What can I say – it’s been another challenging week for running. I’ve joined the “if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em” camp and been trading in my running days for cross country skiing and gym classes. I know many of you have been valiantly training through all this – huge respect. Whatever […]
Hi Everyone! Huge congrats to Cheryl who ran the Palm Desert Half marathon and finished 3rd in her age group and was top 25 in the overall women! And this was a process/training-through race for her next one. Great job! As for the rest of us … well, we’ve been doing what we can in […]
Hi Everyone! Way to go everyone who is still getting out there and doing the best they can in these winter conditions. Just be extra careful when the footing is rough and slippery. A snowy kilometer is a lot harder on the body than a dry, clear kilometer, so just slow down and try to […]
Hi Everyone! Hope you all survived the deep freeze on the weekend and the icy conditions. This weather is definitely testing our love and resolve for running. Do what you need to do to feel good – take a day or two off, run on the treadmill, cross-train, go shorter, … there are no rules […]
