Walk: Sat. Sept. 13 @ Tim's

Note this change in time: The Scotia group walking 18K have decided to start at our old time of 7 am this Saturday only. I suggest that those doing 16K for the Toronto half do the same. Be prepared for (I won't say it out loud) R. A. I. N.

If you're doing a shorter walk, you can set your own time this weekend (7:30 or even 8:00?). But if you join us at 7, you'll get a nice early start on your day. Please let us know where you stand by signing in on the blog.

On that subject, some people say they've been having problems signing in. If that's you, have a look at this page (about half way down) for some possible fixes from Blogger.

You'll see that one of the solutions suggested is to use Firefox, a different browser program. Firefox is free, fast and secure -- it's the browser I use -- and it works on Mac or Windows. You can download it here or learn about it here. It doesn't take long to install, and it has some excellent features, so it might be worth a try. If you had a login problem, but fixed it with a different work-around, please pipe up. It could help someone else.

Finally, a reminder to post your pictures on our Flickr page (especially if you have some from Quebec) so that we can all share them. There are many more Shore Things pix on Flickr than you see on the blog. Be sure to sign in using our Flickr ID and password to view our private shots.

And, as usual, if you don't know how to do something, just ask me.

Hi gang,

I'll be there at 7 am...weather will determine how long a walk I do!

Cheers

I will not be at Tim's on Saturday - I'm out of town for the weekend.

I'll be there with Bob at 7, ready to do my distance.

If it's clear on Sunday, I'll be on the Island getting my next sticker for Terry Fox. Can't speak for Bob, though.

I walked into a door and walloped my baby toe on my right foot. It is now black and blue. It hurts like hell and that is why I wasn't out on Monday nor Wednesday. It doesn't look promising for Saturday either. It hurts to wear shoes. I also signed up for the Kitchener-Waterloo 10 KM so I've gotta rest and get better. See you all soon. Enjoy the long walk.

I would like to show up at 8:00 and do a shorter distance. Preferably between 6 - 8 but could be convinced of 10.
Good luck to all of you on the long walks - will do our best to send positive weather vibes your way.

I'll aim for 7:00 am on Sat and I hope that it is the last of the early starts for several months...

still hoping that some others will do the Terry Fox this Sunday...rain or shine; its a great cause. I'd suggest
Shine - do the Island route.
Rain - do the Beaches route.

Any takers?

I will do an 8:00 start for a 10K walk with Trish. Cheers,

I'll try to walk on Saturday at 8am, 10K sounds good to me. However, don't wait for me if I'm not there by 8am.
