I'm very close to pulling the trigger, especially since the earlybird discount ends today.

If I can work this into my training for Haliburton, I might be interested in bunking with you and doing the 3-day as well! I'll keep you posted!!

I stayed at the Laurier residence one night last year. The single room for $40 for a single person is a very good and very good value option, particularily if you just need a place to crash.
The double room gets a bit iffy. My wife came with me last year - with the single room tiny and her bicycle along for the ride, we upgraded to the double room. If did the trick - but for $80, we wish we had gone to a hotel. $95 or so would have gotten us the in-room TV, Internet access, continental breakfast, easy hotel room access (versus residence high-rise), onsite pool and hot tub that a hotel can offer and a residence does not. So if you get two gals together, my you may want to consider enjoying hotel amenities versus roughing it.
Regardless, this is a great event. I hope everyone reading this can participate!
Good luck with the training.

As for the three-day, I found in 2013 that I was able to run Stage 5 as quick as I could, and with the recovery during running Stage 6 (10K Time Trial) at just Marathon Pace, I was able to run the Stage 7 Marathon at only 15 minutes above PB depsite the heat and fatigue. So with taking stage 6 easy, I was able to run 7 of 8 hours hard during the Sport Series.

Lloyd is great, treats runners like family. His son Jordan is his partner with the WRS now and has all the same good attributes and approach so this should be wonderful for those in the area for years to come. if I lived anywhere nearby I would do the bulk of the series for sure.
