Running Mania

Having run this race last year, and experiencing the energy coming from the RunningMania water station, it was awesome -- sorry I'm going to miss it this year -- same weekend as Boston....

Me, me!

Just skip Boston this year and run it next year ...

Sorry I am heading to Calgary that day. I would have loved to come out!

I would have loved to help volunteer but I'll be in Boston doing the 5K and of course staying for the Marathon!

Where will the race be located at?

I'm in!

Duncan and I are in

I am in if I can get the day off or switch it to a night shift!

I'll say we'll come down for the day....if you promise to give Girly a great big hug...(her birthday is the next day)

I'm running the 1/2 so I can't volunteer this year but I just want to say THANK YOU in advance to those who do!

I am planning to run the 1/2.

Yay, huge thanks to those of you stepping up to help.
Good luck to those of you racing.

Yay Duncan.... Wah....ter.... I can hear his voice like it was yesterday.

Sadly, we're a loooong way from the voice change

After having to bail on this a couple years ago, I think I owe you big time!
Count me in and I might even be able to convince Hubby as well!

hannah wants to come help this year too! Duncan can say 'waaaaaaaaaaa-ter' and Hannah can say 'ggggggggggggrrrrrrr-terrrrrrrrrrrrade'

Marg, I can be available if you still have need closer to the day! It's been a while since I saw your "volunteer gang"!!!

What time do you need us at the water station? We have to be in Montreal around 2pm that day so I can probably stay until 10:30ish. I thought we were about done at that time last time I helped out.

I'm sure you'll be fine to leave by then no matter what.
Thanks again everyone. We will have fun!

I haven't decided if I'm racing at minto or not, but I'll try to stop by to visit if everything works out.

I think the IronClan is in!

My mom is in town visiting, so, between the three adults (and bringing a preschooler and a toddler) - I'm sure we count for 1 set of helping hands.

Delilah had a blast 2 years ago:



Sadly, Dexter won't be able to wear the great orange pirate shirt that Jo-Jo bought him (that Delilah wore there at 18 months) since it's been too small for him for awhile.

I'll be running the HM, so looking forward to a quadruple dose of ORANGE POWER!!!

Just a reminder that the prices goes up on March 15th, across the board for online registration ... $45 to $55 plus $4 or so for registration fees ...

Kinda interesting that all the events 5K / 10K and 21.1K have the same registration fee ... a flat rate for all the events ... which kinda/sorta makes sense, as everyone bares the cost of road closure on the course ...

Remind me again of the hours of duty? No way I can race right now, so maybe I can help out again this year. Especially for a Marg hug....
