Red & White in memory of a great Canadian: Gord Downie RIP
Wednesday's walk took us to city hall to see the sign that was lit for Gord
(I know that some of you are too young to remember the Tragically Hip).

This is race day weekend - best wishes to our Scotiabank folks - there is a very impressive group of Shorethings walking the half marathon including Helen, Bob, Leverne, Jan, Olwyn, Trish, Barb B, Ruth and Cheryl (and Kim?). Dianne B is doing the full marathon - you go girl! Race well. Consider going to cheer on our racers - always appreciated.
Join us on Saturday at Tim's at 8:00 am for a distance of your choosing. I'm assuming that most of the Scotia folks will use Saturday as a rest day - however, they may join in for coffee on Saturday.
For those training, distances are as follows:
NYC - 26 km - finally taper time - it has been a long haul - race day is in two weeks.
LV - 20 km -
Mid week distances are 10 and 10 km.
LV - 20 km -
Mid week distances are 10 and 10 km.
For all racers, the end is in sight - let's git'r done!
Sunday walkers meet at 8:30 am at the Running Room on Queen St.
Mid-week walkers: Monday at 7:00 pm at Loblaws and Wednesday at 6:30 at Occasions.
To our travellers - enjoy, be safe, bring back stories to tell.
And, to any one who is injured or ill, we send you our best - and, we miss you.

i will not be out tomorrow, family visiting. I will be there for Scotia..hoping to finish.
I won't be out on Saturday – will be planting the first of a bajillion bulbs. Looking forward to my last big race of the season! Good luck to us all.
I will not be out tomorrow. The best of luck to our walkers. No matter where or how you finish, just finish upright and smiling. I will be thinking about all of you.

I will be doing my (far too long) taper walk - might see some of you somewhere along my route.
Best wishes to our racers.
Helen - if you need any practice before you plant those bulbs, I have a garden that is just right for practicing on!
I won't be out tomorrow either. Buggered up my knee again and need to give it all the rest I can before Sunday. Hoping to start and hoping to finish. Not sure it will be upright but I will be smiling!
I will be out in the morning. Barb, do you need a ride?
I too will be out for a short distance. Thank Deanna.
Good luck to all the Scotiabank racers - looks like summer weather.

Everyone racing tomorrow, have a great race, I will cheer for you but probably not on the route!!
Recovering today after yesterday's half, so won't be at Loblaws tonight. Have a good walk!
Yeah I was thinking about walking tonight but between my aching muscles and the rain forecast I think I'll take it easy tonight.
Bob and I will be taking a break from walking on Wednesday. Hoping the forecast is wrong about Saturday.
Lynne and I are taking a rest today too
Leverne
okay - me too - I walked earlier
