Walks: Sat. April 6 to Wed. April 10

The dynamic duo do it again!

After last week's post, I've laid off making any fair-weather predictions on a Thursday afternoon for Saturday morning. I'll simply say that it *might* be nice, so come out to Tim's at 8 am for some springtime fresh air and good company.

Our boilerplate weekly schedule:

• 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 group. Let her know if you want to be added to the list.

Race news from Libby:

Best of luck to our keen racers this weekend.

• Olwyn in the Spring Run-Off – You go girl!
• Ruth, and Arlene with Elaine as guide- in the Angus Glen 10-Miler! – Go Girls. 

We know you will all make us proud. Looks as though the weather gods will be kind!

Race report from Margy & Rainer:

We did another 5km that had a walking section ... a lot of good walkers including some serious race walkers (top walker finished in just over 29 min). Margy had a dramatic finish with 20 yds to go past the walker in front of her. She was 2nd in her age group and I came in 1st in my age group. Nice fun race and one of the few races down here that has separate walker sections. We have a couple of more short races planned before we are back in Toronto however they are all fun races. Next Saturday we will do 5km on the beach in Indian Shores at 30C and beer post race ... it is a tough life down here.

It sure sounds tough to me, Rainer!

For those who are away, for many reasons, we're thinking of you and sending you our best. For those thinking of rejoining us, please do! We miss you. For each and every one of you, thanks for making this great group so great!
