You don't have to listen to people yelling rude comments out their car windows at you, throwing things at you or trying to run you over!

Re: Fat Ass Trail Run
By the way, Robin, 48 minutes on that course is fast! How did you like that hill you had to go down to get off the ski hill? By the way you might find yourself in the photos that my son-in-law took out there. They are here: http://www.adampaulin.ca/Photos/main.php?g2_itemId=61069&g2_page=1" oncl...

Re: Fat Ass Trail Run
I've done this all six years, in some form or another. First four years was 17.5K and last two was 7.5K. I really wanted to do the 10K as this is my favourite area to run but was pressed for time, and I am very slow lately. By the way, on the 10K you don't get to do the ski hill but there is another...

Re: Help Trenton High Get a New Track -- URGENT HELP NEEDED ASAP
Thanks everyone! The voting did end at noon. And gnu I did have votes left over and would have voted for your suggestion, but was at work and didn't see it. Apparently we ended up in second place, although if find the whole website very confusing. But we have to wait until Monday to see if we go on....

You may be able to vote again tomorrow, if you have time. It seems that it ends at noon our time.

Re: Help Trenton High Get a New Track
As you can see in the photo, that track is in ROUGH shape. I have tried running on it and it is terrible - I don't think anything has been done to it since it was built like back in the 1970s. At least that is what my friend tells me who went to high school there in the early 70s. Who would have tho...

OMG, that sucks Anne that you forgot to put on the chip!! Maybe it was because of rushing to get there, etc? I checked for your results and wondered what happened, that you weren't listed. I was hoping that you didn't get hurt. See, it could have been worse - you could have got hurt! And I am sure B...

Re: Run for the Toad 2010
We've had friends who have camped in a tent at Pinehurst at the Toad a few years ago. Also, friends brought their huge RV and camped. I think they had had to pay for the sites. Maybe they would let you park in a site and sleep in your SUV. I can't see why they wouldn't. We are staying at the Hilton ...

25K run. It might be sold, but we might be able to get our hands on another one as well if you are interested.

Re: Run for the Toad 2010
I have a friend who wants to sell her bib for the Toad as she cannot make it, if anyone is interested. The only problem is, you would have to run under her name, and I believe that she is registered as military. I am not sure if we can get this changed or not. My only concern is if the person who bu...

So what do you mean by process? I don't know anything about canning. I suppose I could google but I want to ask the experts instead.

Re: Tomato Sauce
It took me a long time to get to this.... the tomatoes have been ripening. I just went and picked another large bowl which means I have THREE large bowls of plum tomatoes now. Strangely, I don't have a single onion! I never run out of onions! Oh well. I will make it tomorrow. I think I will use the ...

Re: Nice Guys (and Girls) Finish Last: Globe opinion piece
I do not buy into the argument such success would motivate a whole lot of people to start running, especially the adults in their 30s, 40s, 50s or older to get out and run first for health and fitness and then for races to add a little fun to the activity. From my own experience, I had assumed to e...

Don't any other communities have Legion Track Clubs? They have one here, and I know that a group of fast (to us) teenagers from our area train with them and go to competitions. They may not be elite but they are working and training. In case you are interested: http://www.eteamz.com/quintelegion/" o...

Re: Run for the Toad 2010
OK, my math is not good. That last number should have been 349.
HOWEVER, as of this moment, there are only 139 spots left. So if you are planning on doing this run and haven't registered yet, don't wait too long and be disappointed!

If you are registered, you should have received their e-mail tonight about the training run on July 24.

Just checked the route for the full and it looks like we should be ok for that area, as well as the schools where they said there would be parking. Hopefully we will be getting there when people are leaving, and there will be parking available!

Thanks Sheldon! I have that circled on my map. Also the schools that they have listed on the Mississauga marathon website. Just have to check and see what the route is, to see what areas we will have trouble accessing, as we will be coming when the race is in progress.

We aren't leaving here till 7 a.m. to get to the finish line by the time our friends finish their marathon, which will be around 11:30 or later.
