Walk: Mon. Aug. 18 @ Loblaws


The amazing medal
Originally uploaded by theshorethings
It was a great Midsummer Night's Walk on Saturday. This is definitely worth a repeat performance. The recognition of walkers is strong -- look closely at the medal, and the walker-alized t-shirts and bibs.

This race has something for everyone. For speed demons (you know who you are), there's chip-timed competitiveness, with loving cups for the top finishers. For social walkers, it can be as easy-going as you please, with a chance to dress up. Plus walking on the Spit at sunset. Good fun.

Special congrats go out to Robert, who finished 7th in a field of 232 (6th, if you count chip time) and 3rd-place male. Arlene, Ruth and Barb also finished strongly. Well done, everyone!

Monday is the last Wow class, and a taper 6K walk for the Loblaws crew. A route is posted on our website. Please sign in so people will know if they'll have company.
