Walk - Saturday Oct. 24, 2020

 

Stairway to Heaven

Join us on Saturday for a walk with friends - get your heart rate up (even a bit) and get some extra distance. Visit with friends outside where it is safe to do so. It's all good. Two groups tend to gather these days - one at Tim's and the other at Loblaws - both start at 8:00 am. We aim to pick routes which allow us to spread out and observe social distancing requirements. Some of the keeners who are entered in virtual races and challenges are always hoping to do some extra distance on a Saturday - if you beg, they may let you come along.  Why not?

Helen and a few others are interested in the Juno Beach 8K virtual race on November 11th. This will be a Remembrance Day to remember and what better way to remember - honouring those who fought so that we may live. 
Check it out here:

And, just a reminder, there is still time to enter the Great Lakes Virtual Challenge - you can do it at your own speed (or lack there of).  Do one lake or do all 5 lakes. It is just another way to keep motivated.

Looking forward to seeing you Saturday morning.

Love the Stairway to Heaven! I'm walking with a smaller group tomorrow in my 'hood, so won't be at Loblaws or Tims. Happy walking everyone!

Susan said...

I'll be out tomorrow at 8:00. If anyone is interested, we could take a route that includes the stairway to heaven and the Pumpkin cemetery, or not - both work.

Meet at Tim's 2 at 8:00 am or ????? I'm game to go.

Helen said...

Last I heard, it was meet at Leverne's at 8 am on Tuesday morning. We've been using that starting point to go into the park. Leverne, still on?

Jan said...

I can't come tomorrow too much work

Susan said...

No confirmation as of yet so I think I'll just walk from home. See you another time.

Kim said...

Turns out I’m not walking tomorrow from Leverne’s as I’m meeting Eileen later in the morning for a walk.

Helen said...

Let’s start the East End Tuesday and Thursday morning walks from now from Tim’s2 at 8 am, except in special, prearranged circumstances. Less confusion for everyone.

Helen said...

Unfortunately, I am having a blog problem which I’ll have to sort out tomorrow morning, that is on Thursday morning. So I am going to have to miss our walk. If anyone wants to walk later in the day just contact me.

Susan said...

I may be able to walk in the afternoon too- but I can't go in the morning.

Kim said...

Kim said...

Oops, sorry. I see you were taking about yesterday. 🙄

Lynne said...

No Kim we're talking about today

Helen said...

Sorry, folks. I’m also going to have to duck out of a walk this afternoon. By unfortunate coincidence, I’ve done something to my back!! Recovering, but I’d best not risk a relapse. Hoping to be *back* on Saturday.

Jan said...

I cant go either this afternoon- work hell

Unknown said...

Is anyone going today Nov 14th. Can't find on my blog. I'm keen

Wendy

Helen said...

Wendy, you have to look at the current week's post comments. There look to be fewer people signing in for the Tim's walk, but you'd be welcome to join us at Loblaws.
