I never did find pizza that I was all that keen on in Toronto. In Halifax; however, there is an outstanding place called Salvatore's that does the trick. Mind you, it still isn't particularly thick, which is apparently what I wanted when I started this funny thread so many moons ago.

Nice! Already excited for this event (rolling circus huh?) - my first time to the Cabot Trail.

I'm in, and have volunteered to co-captain the Fun team... Excellent news for the fun team! We need more fun team runners! Geez, at the very least we need more runners on our list than the Non-Fun team list! :wink: The race is on! Me and my other half would be interested in participating on the fun...

Emma and I will stop by before and after the race to say hello (for those of you that still remember me!).

Great to meet you and hear about your awesome race first hand, Ann!

X-country skiing is an amazing sport to get into. I hope you enjoy it! There are a few important differences to keep in mind when deciding between classic and skate techniques. The weather and conditions are a big factor. If the areas you ski in are likely to experience a lot of freeze/thaw patterns...

This is a great, great feature!

I'm also having a problem editing the route I previously uploaded.

Not to mention the fact that in the absence of CHO (or calories from any source) your body isn't capable of absorbing the electrolytes in the drink. So you are really getting nothing from the Ultima....... except the water part of it i guess... but why pay for something you can get out of the tap? ...

Muay thai all the way!! Can't beat that workout for fun and intensity.

Great store, eh?

HAHA....I can't believe no one commented on this funny response!

The Banff Mountain Film Festival is on at the Bloor Cinema this weekend. It should be highly worthwhile!

One more vote for running in Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. It really is great!

It's true. I'm on that waiting list now and hoping I don't miss the boat on this one.

I feel your pain. This is a horrible winter....especially knowing that the nordic conditions back home in Alberta are spectacular.

It's no suprise that those who train less for a marathon will suffer more strain than those who train more. And recovery takes longer. Other studies have shown other types of heart damage after a marathon. But none have shown any lasting effect. Robert, I'd like those articles. I'll pm you with my ...

It's an interesting study for sure, but there may be more to it than meets the eye. There was also a very useful editorial written about that paper in the same issue of Circulation. The entire aricle and the editorial are available by subsription only, but if anyone wants copies I can email you PDFs...

Looking forward to seeing you Sunday.

Don't count yourself out yet, my friend.....

See you sunday.

I'm also signed up for the half. I had hoped to get some serious training done after the Scotiabank Waterfront half and shave significant minutes off of the 2:08 I did there. Sadly this has been a dismal failure. Therefore, I will just run for fun and see what happens. Hey, your 2:08 sounds pretty ...

I love Montreal and what better way to visit it again than by incorporating a run and spending time with Maniacs. Definitely keeping this on the radar!

I agree with Mike that sushi in Japan is far and away the best. There are some really great spots in Vancouver too though.

I'm in for this run for this important cause.
