Art in the Park
These past few days have been hot and sunny with a gentle breeze - great for early morning or early evening walks. Join us on Saturday at Tim's. Let's meet at 8:00 am and walk whatever distance challenges you. Then coffee with friends - a great way to kick off the first long weekend of summer.
Those training:
Divas - I understand that your race location is changing due to flooding on Toronto Island. Nevertheless, you still have to train - 20 km on Saturday - and I propose starting at 7:30 am given the distance. Weekday distances are 10 and 10 km
Niagara Women's - Margy (wherever you are) you need to do 16 km.
NYC - Susan & Libby need to do a mere 10 km on Sat - just a walk in the park that.
Sign in on the blog - especially to let others know if you are starting at 7:30 or 8:00 am.
Sunday walks begin at 8:30 am from the Running Room on Queen St.
Mid week walks - since Monday is a holiday, I suggest that we meet at 9:00 am at Tim's 2 - again, please sign in so that others will know your plans.
Wednesday evening walkers meet at Occasions at 6:30 pm - we had another great walk this week - consider joining us.
Announcements, Updates and Information:
1. Sporting Life last Sunday was a fun race and the Shore Things certainly walked well! It was fun to see a sea of bright orange race shirts headed down Yonge Street- 22,400 raising over a million $ for Camp Ooch. Great times: Ruth (1:16), Sheila (1:19), Libby (1:18), Arlene (1:24)- guided by Elaine. Well done ladies!
2. Who is doing the Women's College Race on June 10? We have 7 names listed - anymore? Please let Charlotte know - she's arranging for coffee afterwards.
3. Sat. June 17 - Brandon Hill power race - consider this: there is a $5 discount code on registrations. The code is STWALKER and will expire end-of-day on Saturday, May 27.

4. There's a feature-length documentary playing in Toronto this weekend that might appeal.
It's called Boston: The Documentary and it's all about why we get out and pound the streets.

I'll be in Taiwan next week, so will miss out on my 10 + 10. Don't know whether to be glad or sad.

Change of plan. As Kim is the only one besides me/us doing 20K tomorrow, we'll walk from our house together. We'll start too early and finish too late for coffee with the group, anyway. Have a good walk!
I am away for both Saturday and Monday walks. Helen I'm glad you have a walking buddy. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
