Camping? The night before a race? Hardcore! :) Nonsense! This isn't the camping you remember from 1977 in that 6'X6' canvas Woods tent that never dried out, allowed for NO wind to blow through and stank like Hell... Modern tents and sleeping bags (on ThermaRest mattresses) are quite comfy, and perm...

Haligonian? Not much of a partier? You must be the only one!

This is going to be BIG!

Alright, folks - let's have the reports!

Anybody freeze their "bits"? Was there a media presence? Photos for posting?

Lamentably, I am bed-ridden and drinking lots of tea and soup in an effort to be healthy again come Monday. (I kind of doubt that's gonna happen, though...)

OK, I have escaped my captors long enough to issue this quick missive... I have been out-of-town for nearly 2 weeks with only limited access to the Net, so that is why I have not been around of late. Very, very busy with projects... I am currently in Guelph and/or Waterloo depending on the time of d...

Further to the Wolfe Island thread, I'm proposing the following format change... I'm also doing this race. I'm sure windy is doing this one, so: YES tortoise, griffk, dmbann, baldguy, LaDeChat, geck, BJH, HCD, cimit, TracyW, runjanerun, heath, trytorun, dgrant1, Lean_Machine, ckct, runamuck, Groovy ...

A former director of the race, ... , says he's sure we can make arrangements with someone on the island to use a piece of their property. He lives on the island and will start making inquiries. So don't worry, we'll get it sorted out, hopefully by the end of January. Excellent, Jim. I'd actually pr...

This report was written right after the 2004 Toronto Half Marathon: Hello All! The 2004 10th Anniversary edition of the Toronto Marathon was run yesterday in cold and windy conditions. For the second straight year, I ran the Half Marathon race with my friend Kellie Meilleur. Last year, Kell and I fi...
