Walks: Sat. April 13 to Wed. April 17

Our amazing racers at Angus Glen

As you know, I have vowed never to make weather predictions here. But there's a rumour that it might possibly perhaps maybe (or maybe not; let's not tempt the Weather Gods!) nice for a walk on Saturday. I hope you'll come out and see for yourselves at 8 am at Tim's on Lake Shore and Leslie. Please comment to let us know if you're coming.

Our weekly schedule also includes:

• Sunday morning at 8:30 am at the Running Room on Queen Street.

• Monday (Loblaws, Gerrard/Vic Park) and Wednesday (Occasions) evenings at 6:30 pm – as usual, weather permitting. It's especially useful if you sign in for weeknight walks!

• Wednesday mornings at 9:00 am at Tim's – usually Charlotte sends a confirming email to the regulars in this morning group. Let her know if you want to be added to the list.

Race news from Libby:

Congratulations to our racers last weekend. Olwyn represented us well, completing the 8K Spring Roster climbing the hills of High Park on Saturday. 

Ruth, Arlene and Elaine climbed the hills on the golf course at the Angus Glen 10-Miler on Sunday, and Ruth kept up a blazing pace of 12:56 mins per mile (that's under 7.88 mins per km)! 

Well done ladies! You are an inspiration to us all.

The Toronto Waterfront 10K in June sold out in 2 days! Rainer is looking for a spot, so if you know of anyone wishing to sell their bib (which is allowed by the organizers), please contact him!! 

As always, please advise Libby of any Race Interests!

Race report from Rainer:

We did a 5km on the beach last weekend. A little different PowerWalking in sand. However had fun on a beautiful day and of course enjoyed a cool beer post race. With this heat, beer is important to stay hydrated. Have a great walk Saturday. Hope it is mild and dry.

If you have news, pictures, or complaints about the weather (well, maybe not the last one), please contact Helen who remains the sub, for the present, until Susan rejoins us.
