Sporting Life Stars
Late start - Wedding Bells - Long Weekend
Consider this: late start time on Saturday so that anyone who wants to watch the Royal Wedding (does it require capital letters?) may do so. These are options for our weekend walks:
1. meet at 8:00 am at Tim's as usual on Saturday
2. meet at 9:30 am at Tim's (in order to watch the wedding first and then walk) on Saturday
3. meet at 8:30 am at the Running Room on Queen St on Sunday (free parking on Queen).
Please sign in so that others know your plans.
Folks training for Niagara are scheduled to do 16 km on Saturday and 10 km twice during the week.
Those training for Norway are scheduled to do 18 km on Saturday; 8 km & 10 km during the week.
Training folks love company on their longer walks - please join them. It is very helpful.
Hikers will do 24 km on Sunday in Hockley Valley....very beautiful; very hilly.
Monday walk - meet at Tim's 2 at 9:00 am - long weekend - what better way to start your Monday?
Wednesday evening walk from Occasions at 6:30 pm.
Wednesday day time walkers meet at Tim's at 9:00 am - watch for Charlotte's email confirming details.

wow - what a lovely newsy letter. Thanks. I won't be at Tims on Saturday as I am likely to be glued to the TV for more than an hour or two. I would like to walk on Monday from Tims 2, though. Will wait to see who else is coming so that I can bum a ride. Or I'll walk to Tims 2 instead and arrive about coffee time. Have a great weekend, everyone. And congratulations to all the Sporting life people. All winners!!
Kim, Viv & I would prefer the late start.
The late start is fine with me. See you on Saturday.
Late start works for me - see you at 9:30 on Sat.
I like the 9:30 start on Saturday - though after all the "tea and crumpets" it may be more of a waddle! And I hope to be out Monday morning also.
Lovely newsy letter and fun photos! The Sporting Life was a great race; and thanks to Trish who 'protected' my left arm all the way along the course! Not sure if I'll be out Saturday morning, but if so I'm happy with the 9:30am start; have to work Saturday afternoon and Sunday, so may rest in. Happy Birthday to Queen Victoria; which birthday are we celebrating for her this year? And happy May-two-four weekend to everyone else!
What Jan said! Happy long weekend, everyone!
I'll go with the majority and see you at Tim's for 9:30 for as Jan says "a short waddle". Doing my 16k on Monday.
Have a great long weekend everyone.
I will not be out tomorrow. Walking our 18K Sunday. hope to join you at tim's 2 on Monday.
Blueberry scones and clotted cream at the ready!
I will not be out Saturday after all.
I am hoping to be out Saturday at 9:30 after the wedding. Very nice newsletter, Susan!
I loved the blog. It was like reading the newspaper! A 9:30 start sounds very doable. It's the rain that could put a damper (no pun intended) on things. If it is raining hard, I will stay put and finish my pot of tea. Barb, if you would like a pick up, I will come for 9 am, weather permitting.

Congrats Niki & Jim...
I will not be out Saturday or Monday...have a great long weekend friends!
Hmm - still wedding-watching. The weather is not looking inviting I must say. May be rethinking the walk.
On second thought, not walking this morning.
Think I'll stay put this morning. Hope everyone still enjoying the wedding.
Yes, I agree...the rain has decided it for me. See you on Monday morning, enjoy the weekend.
Unless the clouds part in a glory of sunshine, I won’t be walking this morning.
Okay - I can agree - the rain has decided it for me too. I hope to see you Monday.
Ok I have become a fair-weather walker. I'm not walking this morning.
Sharon and I will be at Tim’s 2 Monday morning.
Barb S.
Change of plans - I won't be out tomorrow morning after all - family duties!!
Arlene and I will be out tomorrow.

Bob and I plan to be at Tim’s 2. See you at 9.
My meeting tonight got cancelled (yay) so I'll be ready for a walk tonight.
Yah Jan - me too
