Walks: Victoria Day Weekend and Wed. May 22

Our world in living colour

My usually reliable sources didn't send me any pix from the Sporting Life 10K, so you'll have to be content with a colourful view from tonight's walk. However, I did hear that – despite the cold and wind last Sunday – all our Shore Things were winners. A race report from Libby:

Ruth continues to lead us all with a blazing time of 1:12. Eva, Cheryl (1:26) – supported by Ralph and myself (1:14) – had PB times! perhaps spurred by the cold. Norma (1:18), David 1:04 (the runner), Trish, Olwyn (1:34), Ellen (1:26), Cynthia (way to go 1:43) and Marilyn (1:27) all finished strong.

Congratulations to all of you! Let us know if we missed out on any personal bests.

This Saturday, the Niagara crew have 18K on your schedule (if you're following the old schedule, which I assume you are – speak up if you're doing things differently or starting early). Dubliners, it's 10K using the new schedule. As always, you set your own distance and pace.

Monday, being a holiday, there's a morning option starting at 9 am at Tim's 2 (Vic Park & Gerrard) – if you prefer to start earlier, make a plea in the comments. Ditto if you prefer to meet in the evening on Monday. 10K for Niagara; 8K for Dublin.

Wednesday is just a normal Wednesday: Shoppers at 7 pm. 10K for Niagara; 5K for Dublin.

Have a great long weekend, everyone. Break out the sunscreen and be careful of those fireworks.
