Ok folks, I am now taking a group order on Liniment of Turpentine. Minimum order of 1 gallon per person! :twisted: After some searching, liniment of turpentine isn't so scary. It's a distilled resin from pine trees. Absorbine Jr: menthol, wormwood oil and a secret tincture of herbs Vicks vapor rub: ...

Air pollution isn't bad, imo, but I am suffering from dust allergies and I'm taking antihistamines every day. I realized that I'm spoiled by the super clean air of Victoria. I've been told that it's been getting worse since 1997 when Hong Kong was given back to China. At that time, many factories op...

TL;DR (short) version Ran strong. Heat and boredom were main issues. Finished 2:31. Had a great time! Long Version NYC wasn't far enough from home so I looked to another continent! :lol: So I'm in Hong Kong visiting the in-laws for a month. We planned this trip a week after Chinese new year so that...

Still a great job, Jen!!! Too bad our schedules didn't work out to meet up. Your photos looks awesome!

You look awesome in the photo! Glad you had a great race!

2:09 and satisfied with it. Some of you may have noticed that I haven't been around all that much. Things kind of fell apart with some health issues getting in the way. This has been a successful year in getting back into running. I got back on track and was even accepted to the NYC marathon. Many t...

Great strong performance!
Sounds like a great weekend in Victoria!

Still a great performance, considering. Good on ya!

Great seeing you on race day! Congrats on demolishing that PB!

Awesome run, Claudie! So happy for you!

Welcome back!
You faced a challenging run and learned a bit more about yourself, right on!

That's awesome, Jen!
Still don't know my chip time but hoping it's under 2:15.

Will they be serving Big Mac and Fries with a Large Coke at the waterstations, I wonder .. :shifty: :lol: Race shirts for next year. You know you want one Andy. http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z267/Tred_Miller/misc/mcd.jpg [/quote] darn, i was hoping for shirts inspired by hamburglar or grimace....

I guess I'll see you there. This may be the motivational boost I needed.

Seeing me at the NY Marathon?

HAH! No but you can claim that it's your fault that I registered.

OMG OMG holy cow. I'm in. Now I'm nervous.
I think I might go through with it.

I happened to notice this price increase to $130.00. I do find that expensive. I can still run the Runwild Leading Edge Marathon in St. Albert for $85.00 or the Saskatchewan Marathon in Saskatoon for I think $85.00. Yah $130 does makes me think twice. Your examples of marathon pricing are much easi...

Yay, Bob's coming to Vancouver, Bob's coming to Vancouver ... :dance: :dance: What about Helen ?? Will she be coming to Vancouver, as well ??? :shifty: :pray: :pray: :pray: Yes, we'll both be at the Friday M&G. Not sure about the Saturday events yet. I'll be going alone for the post-race M&...

Hmm I'm technically a Vancouverite. ...some of my tax documents get mailed to mom and dad's place in Vancouver.
But if you want to be specific, yes I'm a Vancouver Island-ite.

Haha that's funny because my 2004 Vancouver full is still my PB too. I wonder if I knew you back then. Maybe I wasn't on the RR forum yet.
