Looking Ahead (BY DIANE)

 

Well it seems that winter is having a last hoorah before we (hopefully) settle into some real spring.

We have lots to look forward to. A reminder that on April 20, after walking, we will be doing some good work for the community by picking up litter at Oriole Park. We will go directly after walking. Thanks to B for organizing and to C who has offered to host us for coffee and tea and sweeties afterwards.

Then we have the Sporting Life 10K on May 12th - if you have already signed up remember to use your coupon before the race!  And on May 23rd a whole bunch of us are off to Ottawa for either a 10K or 21K. Training for both distance and hills is underway.  I confess that, between bad weather and various work conflicts,  I have not dug in quite yet - but I vow to do so!

Come summer we have pool parties, adventure walks, more races and, of course, lots of breakfasts and chats. Just thinking about it cheers me up on what is a very gloomy day - but, on the plus side, it is perfect weather for a cozy day at home.
