Oh (no!) ... Canada

Another massacre in Canada - this time at a Mosque in Quebec.

Thank you so very much Donald Trump and Dr. Kellie Leitch. I am sure this couldn't have happened without your help.

All my thoughts and prayers go out to those affected by this horendous event.

Canada is better than this!

In October of last year I decided I should "formalise" my running by joining a run group. As we were approaching Fall and Winter, and the changing weather, I thought it would be a good idea to get hands-on advice and direction.

I joined a local "Learn to Run" group. And, while I was well ahead of the pace they would be running at, it has been a helpful and enjoyable experience.

(If I had joined when I first decided to start running, I probably would not have been able to keep up!)

There were about 12 of us in the group. All very friendly and supportive. It was a great experience that culminated in the Resolution Run on Dec.31st that I previously mentioned.

Many from the original group (including myself) wanted to continue and signed-up for the 5K run group that started in early January (2017). And, we insisted that our coaches - a great wife and husband team - continue on with us.

Okay, so today I really went outside my abilities and ran a total of 14k. Not what I had originally intended.

I will explain more tomorrow. But, I joined a running group. We ran about 4k. Then, I decided I needed to run further - later. So, I ran an additional 10k. I have a feeling I will regret this tomorrow. We'll see.

Happy running!

On Dec.31/16 - New Year's Eve, I ran in an informal 5k. I did it in 27:30. All I could think at the time was "holy $%^#"!

Okay, folks. Let's get this blog restarted.

See you tomorrow.
