Walks: August 12 & 15

It was a fine "house cooling" for Trish. Now we all have to continue to live up to the motto above: Live well; Laugh often; Love much. And I should probably add: wipe the table before you take the picture.

This is another summer omnibus post for this week's remaining two walks.

Wednesday is one of our long weeknight walks: 10K. The eastern margin is Gledhill, the western is Pape, and it's the route that goes south of Danforth. A route is posted at this link. (Bob & I can't make it, as we're picking our daughter up from the airport that night. Therefore, I'll be walking early on Thursday morning, weather permitting. Let me know if you'd like to join me.)

It's the set-up for a 16K walk this Saturday. The turnaround for the boardwalk route is Kingsbury at Lakeside. A route is posted at this link.

This schedule is for the Toronto Island Women's Half on September 19th, for which eight Shore Things are registered. You can still sign up at the earlybird rate of $55 if you do it before September 9th, which is fast approaching.

For the KW Walking Classic 10K on September 27th, the deadline before the price increase is even closer, September 1st. Ten members of our group are signed up so far. Hope you'll consider joining us to support this walkers-only race. Race organizer Susan Lewis (who is a long-distance member of the Shore Things) has arranged for us to have a later checkout at the Waterloo Hotel, which is just a short walk from the start. Some of us have rooms there, so it looks like this will be our race hotel.
