| A cool June walk along the lakeshore |
More and more studies talk about the benefits of moderate to intense exercise – not only for our bodies, but for our minds. A recent article talked about how kicking it up a notch can protect us from "silent strokes" as we age. Not that we're aging…
Wednesday, it's ordinary mortal pace for 10K. If there's a volunteer to map it out, we'll have a new route. Otherwise, we'll do one of our existing routes, but perhaps backwards for variety. The new schedule is now posted on the blog, so have a look at it to get an idea about what's coming up.
Save the date: Sunday, August 21st (after the Midsummer Night's 15K), Lou-Ann and Paul invite us to their place for pool party and BBQ. Full details will follow, but for now mark your calendars.
Familiar faces: If you check out the video for the KW Walking Classic, you'll see some Shore Things around the end of the first minute. Go, us! Thanks to sharp-eyed Alexis for the tip-off.
I know I'm forgetting something. Hope you'll forgive my mental lapse. Obviously, I need to do more hills.

I won't be joining you this evening, but hope to be at Shopper's on Wednesday evening.
Thanks for the link to the KW race, Helen. I didn't know it even existed - and I saw a few of our favourite Shore Things people......
I'll be out tonight but may have to back off from the intervals. Speed is not my friend yet. I'll support your efforts howver, and yell "Go! Go! Go!!" in the famous "Lee" style :)
Hi,
I plan to be out, but like Eileen will just do what I can...recovering from a major bout of muscle spasms in my calves.
See you at 7,
Sheila
I won't e out tonight. Am looking for bodies who would like to walk Thurs instead of Wed this week. Let me know.
I'll be out tonight!
Debbie

Remember, each of us is only racing against his- or herself. Even if you just pick up your own pace slightly, an interval can be beneficial -- partly because you're fooling your body into thinking it's doing something new different.
See you tonight at 7.
I'll be out Wed night. Trish...are able to walk that night too?
See you soon. Dawn and Bob have mapped out 10K routes in the park. We can have shorter turnarounds for those who need them.
