Oh, the distances we go....
Join us (after doing the rain dance) on Saturday at Tim's at 8:00 am. Just do it - any distance is good. For those training, here are the proposed distances:
Niagara Half distance traing is 18k with 10K twice this week.
The Divas are scheduled for 16K with 10 and 8 during the week.
Susan and Libby have 10K on the books.
Let's support those training by walking with them - it all helps.
Best wishes to Arlene, Elaine and Dianne who are doing the Good Life Half this weekend. May the weather gods be kind..... Would love photos from the race please.
Sunday walkers meet at Running Room on Queen St. at 8:30 am
Mid week day time walkers connect through Dawn for time and day.
Mid week evening walks are at 6:30 pm Monday (Loblaws) and Wednesday (Occasions). So nice to have Deanna, Sylvia and Viv join us on Wednesdays.
Sign the blog to let others know your walking plan - it is appreciated.

I am away at a work conference on Friday/Saturday so will not be out. I hope there is some relief from the rain on Saturday. See you next week.
I intend to walk tomorrow with rain gear! Distance determined by the company!
I will only walk Saturday if it isn't raining - rushing off to docs afterwards & I want to be dry.
The thought of doing 16K in a deluge and wind is less than appealing. Will reserve judgement till tomorrow morning, but doing a little dance now and hoping the rainclouds pass.
I'm with Helen. Have been gathering up my gear but really don't want to start out in the cold and wet. Would be open to Sunday as I really want to get the distance in. I to will reserve judgement til morning (though I need to leave my house by 7:25) so any of you on the fence please post your thoughts early in morning. Thx.
Will likely not walk in the morning unless the weather miraculously improves.
I won't be out tomorrow. I love a rainy day but not if I am outside in it. SKJ
I have made an executive decision that I will be staying in bed at 6:30 as opposed to getting up and walking...wishing you dryness and safety if you are walking...
I met Norma in the grocery store tonight and she also made an executive decision but is going to the gym, not staying in bed like me!!!
I've got my rain gear out and it would be a shame to waste it!!!!
Ruth
With this rainy weather, I too will stay home.
Barb Shand
I love rainy days but with colds and sniffles, it is probably better to stay at home in bed. Safe walk tomorrow. Might walk on Sunday if not raining.
Because I have the dryer option I'm heading to the gym.
See you next time.
Sheila
Staying put. Just too cold and wet for me. If anyone wants to try tomorrow let me know. Stay dry everyone.
After much toing and froing we'll be there for a distance TBD
Not coming - sorry
I'd like to take credit for the rain holding off. Of course as soon as I say no the weather holds. Hope it wasn't too windy. Off to try and get some distance in myself.
Anyone walking tonight? I can join you, if so.
I plan on coming out
Okay, I guess we'll be coming out, too.
For consideration, Kim has asked if we can change one of our evening walks back to 7 pm -- Monday is the day she says she's most likely to join us. Can we live with 7 pm on Mondays and 6:30 pm on Wednesdays, as a compromise?
I am in the car on my way home. Please go ahead. If I get home on time I'll join you.
Viv and I will be walking tonight!
Me too - see you there and then
I'll be walking from home to Occasions (and back), then hoping we can enjoy 8K together. It's a bit nippy, but otherwise lovely for a walk.
I will be walking. Deanna
