Saw this last summer (viewtopic.php?f=1&t=48668&p=1504508#p1504508) ... glad to see it made it to a bigger audience!

Received this link from my daughter this morning - great message!

Thanks for posting the info - looks like an interesting read. I've just requested this book from the library.

My brother just forwarded this to me. "Run tonight. North end of queens park by the monument at 6:30 in honour of those lost and injured yesterday in Boston. Spread the word." Feel free to pass on or join in if you want. Michelle Brownrigg - Director, Physical Activity and Equity, Univers...

I was so relieved when I found out everyone was okay! My heart goes out to all those affected by this tragedy. Yesterday was spent busy in Toronto and it wasn't until early evening when I was on the subway that I caught wind of what happened. A blurb on the scrolling marquee read something of an eva...

Welcome back, Ray (from another original member who should also make it a regular practice to post here again). Looking at some of those pics really reinforces how time flies by - it seems like yesterday! Sounds like life is treating you well... that's great to hear. :) Best of luck with your traini...

Still around. Still running. Still working late hours. Same game!

See Marci, I told you this was a great place!

I'm glad to see that you found your way here.

Hi all! :D I received this email today (as likely many of you did). I just thought I'd pop by to pass the info along in case anyone wants any cheap training gear. Around the Bay Road Race cordially invites you to its RUNNING SHIRT BLOW OUT SALE! Various running shirts, tech, long and short sleeved, ...

'kay, so it's not that great of a deal but someone may just want/need it... no sense just tossing it into the recycling box without offering it up. I have a coupon for 10% off the purchase of anything Saucony at the Running Room . Expiry June 30th. PM me if you want it & I'll pop it right in the...

Second that as a good method!

Happy Anniversary Striders!

Easy 10k for me today. Awaiting Mother's Day gift... being DD returning fr NYC tomorrow morning. That's truly all I need - her smiling face returned safely.

Enjoy your weekend, all.

Ohh, poor Sammy! :( Hope he's feeling better already. Took my own little pupster for a long 1.5 hr trail hike ('kay, long for her , she's 6.5lb!). Yesterday was a rugged day (personally & professionally) so it was a welcome (planned) treat to just get out and away from all. Nothing better to rec...

Good luck to all Mississauga runners!

I must say when I ran past the huge MissMara billboard a couple of nights ago in a charity run, I had some feelings of envy. Enjoy the race... first-timers, you'll love it!

Have a good time, all!

Great news... but, yes, definitely be careful & pay attention to your body. Have a great race!

Nice pics, everyone!

Great pic(s)!

I just want to re-emphasize the ARRIVE EARLY aspect. I did Mississauga a few years ago, and it took me about 35 minutes to get from the off-ramp of the 401 into the parking lot at square one (about 2k away!). Enjoy your first 1/2!! Ditto what Erin said. Leave plenty of time for the trek from the of...

You've been given some great list ideas...but I must say I love this one.
Must remember that for myself.

I like that too.

Personal note... dropped DD off early this morning - she'll be in NYC until Mother's Day. :( Running note... did a fun charity run in Mississauga tonight. POURING! Gotta love it - truly my fav weather for running outdoors! So exhilarating & refreshing. Finisher's medal put around my neck by Stan...

Dr S, Aruba... nice! Congrat's on the trip & potential job.

Workoutwise, just an easy 15k "LSD" for me today. (Geesh, that used to be an easy short run. How things change.)

Personally, lots of "contemplating on life" today.

Forgot to mention, workoutwise, just an easy 10k for me today.

That's great! I'm hoping to find time to get there this week. Enjoy the show!

(BTW GTAers, it's playing until May 3rd. http://www.e-m-p.net/ Support local theatre!)

I'm extremely retentive when it comes to that stuff... I pack and unpack at least twice if I'm traveling to a race site... I actually have a lamintated check list that I use a dry-erase marker on :oops: I love that! :lol: 8) I haven't gotten to using a laminated checklist but I do check everything ...
