Walk: Sat. Sept. 20 @ Tim's

Scotia friends, you have put in your distance and now you deserve a break. It's Taper Time! Guess what? You win 8K (and 6K and 5K next week)! Enjoy. You've earned it. (Meanwhile, the Toronto crew falls back to 11K before their last big push.)

In celebration, the group will return to an 8 am start. The handful of people still with extra-long walks to go before the Toronto Half will have the option to start earlier.

Don't forget to review the choices and dates in that monster message of last weekend. Plus, new links are always being added to our blog, so check them out. I came across a cute race in January, for instance: the Robbie Burns 8K. Next year would be the poet's 250th birthday (they age well in Scotland it seems), and if you sign up by December, you score a set of tartan pyjamas. How can we resist? Perhaps we'll find out what runners wear under their kilts...

See you Saturday at 8 am.

Men in kilts....what a wonderful idea and it would give us something to look forward to! I'm interested! Cynthia

We'll be there tomorrow for 11K -- and, today, hope you all have a happy International Talk Like A Pirate Day. Ahaarrrr!

I will not walk Saturday. Maybe next week, it will not be as hectic as this week for me.

Have a great walk everyone...
