Please contact Libby or Ruth with your information if you want them to pick up your kit.

There is race day pick-up at High Park.

 

Likely there will be a very small group walking from Tim's next Saturday of those unable to participate in the Harry's.

 

See you Saturday. 

Walks - March 21 - March 25

Feeling the love

Join us on the first Saturday of spring, at 8 am, at Tim's. Promises to be a great day for walking any distance of your choice. For those training ...lace up those sneakers as GoodLife and Big Sur walk 14K this weekend. K-W is 12K and Niagara is 10K - or, just round it up and do 14 - why not?

 

Don't worry if you've taken the winter off - this is the ideal time to join us again. I won't mention you by name, of course, but hope to see you Sat.

Training during the week should be 8K one night and 6K the other. Usually Monday at Loblaws; Wednesday at Occasions with some gentle hills. Check the blog.

A special shout out to those with health challenges - we think of you and miss you - Debbie, Ian, and Frances.

 

Announcements:

To those with health challenges - please know our thoughts are with you.

Sunday - 1 or 2 options: Libby is walking 12K on Sunday with Ruth and maybe Arlene - location TBD. Please let her know if you are interested.

 

Helen would like company to join her for a 12K walk on Sunday morning – leaving at 8 am from her house. Plenty of parking in the lot across the street. Helen adds: "We’d love you to come for coffee or tea afterwards. I might even have a few treats. Email Helen for directions, if needed."

I'm never sure why I can't get one consistent font!

 

Announcement- K-W has a draw for an IPad Mini for all registered before April 1st. So far only Alexis has committed- Anyone else ???



 

 





It's all about the gear!

Join us Saturday at Tim's at 8:00 am.  It might be brisk, again! Remember, the company is worth it. For those training, the K’s are creeping up. Good Life Racers distance is 16K and KW is 14K. Weekday distances are 8 and 5 for GoodLife and 6K both days for K-W. The rest are free to get out there for whatever distance pleases you. Just git 'er done!

 

Evening walkers: Monday at Loblaws and Wednesday at Occasions; at 7:00 pm. Please sign the blog so others know your plans. Longer days and milder weather will inspire us to get back to those regular those evenings walks.

Trish - we're thinking of you, your Mom and your family.

 

Some are still on vacation - enjoy. Some have been waiting for spring to join us - today is your day!

 

Only one announcement: Anyone interested in joining Libby on Sunday for a 10K? She is returning from skiing out West Saturday night! Blog or send her an email.
