We are expanding into Ireland as you can above with Niki popping in for a casual hug for Barbara at hers and Ian's beautiful home in Carlingford, IE. Thank you to Jim for the photo!

Grand Caledonia Update

According to the organizer's reply to our emails, only the Caledonia race has been passed onto them from the Mudcat organizers, and no word as to whether a Mudcat will take place next spring, and likely no refund. The registration fee for the Grand Caledonia is waved for Mudcat registrants as a courtesy. The challenge is the less-than-optimum lead time to train if a half marathon is your choice of race – it's on October 9. Otherwise, there is a 5K option but no equivalent 10k as there was for the Mudcat.
🤔 Discuss amongst yourselves...

Weekly Walks

The forecast for Saturday morning is favourable for any walker's-choice distance from Loblaws, and post walk coffee at the picnic tables. 

Weekday walks are on the variety menu. Please share if you can.

If you decide to do the Grand Caledonia, let us know so distances can be posted for those interested in sharing the joy.

Celebrations

Best birthday wishes go out to Margy who will mark the occasion this Monday the 13th. Hope to see you on the trails soon so we can serenade you publicly!

Loved the photo and international flavour. I'll be out on Saturday, walking with the turtle paced group.

Wonderful photo. International friendship is one of the joys the Shore Things brings.
If I wake up early enough, I will be there or else do not wait for me. Be safe, be happy.
