Best wishes to any and all racers.

My back is a little iffy today (weird tweak yesterday), so I'm not going to run. I do want to get my commuter bike out of storage to make sure it's road worthy so that I can ride to work sometime in the next week or so.

Early morning 31K. Between the ice from yesterday's melt and drivers who turn without slowing down or signaling, I had a few brushes with death. On the good side, a new pair of shoes felt heavenly.

We get to do our first destination run with the clinic. It should be interesting as there is a huge disparity in paces from 6:30 to around 8:00. Some of the participants will probably end up catching the train part way. Workout will be 20 + 1 x 3 plus whatever we need to actually get to the Quay. Should 9ish km

[Robinandamelia]

6 miles outside (loops around the block)

18k with the clinic this morning. Its lovely out. Just needs to warm up a tich

31.5 km for me this morning. The weather was perfect for a run this morning. It was cool when I left the house but I was warm in my long sleeve shirt toward the end. I did the first 26 km at an easy pace and the remaining 5.5 at a harder pace. The only downside was that my Garmin died at 26 km so I had to estimate the rest of my mileage. Fortunately I was close to home and I only ended up being off by 500 m.

Another Couch-to-5K run today. I don't even know which one, I just followed the prompts, then jogged most of the way in from where I finished. Cold-ish and grey in Charlottetown, PEI this morning. But I really enjoyed my run/walk.

[Rick C]

Struggled through 32 km today, my longest distance of the year to date. Back seized up a bit and that didn't help either.

Highlight was running into Dave Proctor, 2013 Canadian Ultra-marathon champion, who turned around and graciously slowed down enough to run with me for a while, chatting about various gossip and this and that. He'd already done 200 km for the week and looked fresh as a Spring daisy pushing his baby buggy. He helps our organizing committee for the Millarville "Run To The Farmers' Market" Half Marathon - the start line is a five minute walk from his house in Black Diamond, Alberta.

beautiful out this afternoon in Ottawa! my run this morning (4km...just for a change!) was on the treadmill, but I'm hoping to get outside for a walk this afternoon when C gets up from her nap.

Not a bad aim. Have fun!!

14.5 km solo walk from home to Waterloo RR. Then a 22 km LSD run with a group for friends from the Waterloo RR.

[jharbeck]

12 km along the lake today, first day out in shorts. Finally!

[Dr. S]

Hope your back is back to normal in no time La. I had something similar this week and had to miss my beloved tae-boxe on Thursday...

Ran 30 mins today with Popeye, compression socks were in the wash and I felt my shins immediately.

[Hammie]

Did a one-way run from Burnaby to Delta to a friend's for brunch. I did about 18K in just over 1:50; Rob joined me after doing a bit on his own first. It was a great run overall but pretty tough over the Queensborough and Alex Fraser Bridges. I felt great for the run but then managed to trip while jogging to catch the bus after . Some small wounds (fingers, knees, and pelvic bone, oh my) and a cracked iPhone were the injuries. The wounds will heal, and I figure it's time for an early upgrade anyway. (not going to let it put a damper on my day! )

We saw Rob as he was heading up to the Queensborough. Hope you don't have any lasting injuries from your trip.

12km done this afternoon in the sunshine! Arm warmers came off about halfway through so a run in a tshirt and capris! No Layers, hats, mitts, nada!

I wish I could have caught you from falling. Heal up soon.

I did 11k before meeting Jen for a total of 26k. It was the hilliest long run I've ever done. Legs are feeling it now. Still a great run and it was fun. Thanks, Jen.

Nice run, but not a nice fall. Hope you're not too stiff and banged up.

[ultraslacker]

ah Jen, sorry to hear about your fall!!

My aim was not true... I did not hit anywhere near 35km. I just did not have it today, as my legs were super tired and sore (not sure why, since they felt fine for yesterday's run!). I ended up joining up with a running buddy part way through, and also ran into a couple of others so it was a very social day on the trails! lol Anyway, ended up with 12.2 miles (just shy of 20k).
