Some of the Shorethings Pirates
Congratulations to Kim, Helen, Bob, Jan, Lynne, Leverne and Dawn, all of whom competed in the Maritime race last weekend - some did 5 km; some did the half marathon; and some did both races. Apparently, there were a few unanticipated hills on the course. Love the outfits. A good time was had by all.
Join us on Saturday, at Tim's, at 8:00 am for a walk and coffee with friends. For those training, the distances are as follows:
Corning - 12 k on Saturday and 10 k and 8 k during the week.
Scotia - a long 18 k and 10 and 8 k during the week.
If any one wants to start earlier, please announce your plan in the blog so that others know and may consider joining you.
Other walking options:
Sunday walkers meet at 8:30 am at the Running Room on Queen St.
Weekday day time walkers - usually walks are organized by Charlotte - check with her for details.
Evening walks at 6:30 pm on Monday (Loblaws) and Wednesday (Occasions).
As always, it helps to sign in.

Margy is leaving the Cavan Hills and butter tarts to Rainer!
I will be at Tim's at 7 a.m for 18k with Norma and Olwyn and whoever else would like to join us..!
Margy
I'll be out at 8:00 am - wishing for butter tarts - enjoy one for me, Rainer.
I don't know about your priorities, Margy. But we're glad to have your company. I'll try for 7:00 (and I won't have the excuse of a prior appointment to bail early this time), but don't wait for me if I sleep in.
Ruth
I will not be out tomorrow...enjoy the weekend my friends...will see you next week!
Unfortunately, I'm unable to do the 18k with Margy, Norma and Ruth (so unfortunate!), as I have to work, but hope to back out next weekend for the 20k ~ happy walking!
I expect to be out tomorrow...couldn't keep up the pace with Margy, Norma and Ruth for 18 so will likely come out at 8
Bob and I will be out at 8 on Saturday for a "normal human" distance, TBD.
I will be out tomorrow at 8. Looking forward to seeing everyone.
I will be out at 8 for as Helen says a"normal human" distance. Great description. Will be doing my 12k on Sunday.
Sharon and I will be out at 8 Saturday morning.

I will walk, Jan - see you then.
I wouldn't mind a quick walk this evening.
Lynne

Leverne
A quick walk of 6K or so is what I'll need tonight.
Walking the Yellow Brick Road tonight with Sir Elton - won't be at Occasions. Have a good walk and see you Saturday.
I'll be Skyping with Taiwan tonight, and Bob is doing recording. Sorry to miss the walk. The evening looks perfect for it.
