Hey everyone I just saw KBO (Karen) running down Portage Avenue on the CTV news, on a clip about today's Winnipeg Police Service run. Way to go... Waiting for the report........ Looking good....

So last year after the Police Services Half I was in a clip that CTV used on the evening news. I have a copy of that because I have a friend that works in the news room there. So, either they actually used the same clip again or I have a stalker at CTV Winnipeg.

Could it be possible two years in a row? It should be easy to tell. Last year was nice and warm and we were all wearing shorts. This year it was winter gear from head to toe.

I'll tape the news at 11pm and see if they play again.

Indeed, there is a shot of Jackie and me running down Portage at the half way point. There is also a great shot of Steve (Bingerunner) heading for the finish line...just after the lead woman passed him.

You must have an in at the CTV editing suite to be in there two years in a row, or a secret admirer :-)
