Watch out for the Red Puma's at Scotiabank Toronto 1/2 Marathon!

Even with the thousands of runners expected at this Sunday's Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront 1/2 Marathon  it will be easy to spot me with these bright red Puma Faas 500 shoes.  I got them earlier this year and with the adjustment to a mid-foot running style am running stronger and faster than ever.  That could all be in my mind however...Sunday's finish time will tell.  In the meantime, here's what to look out for:



And watch for them as well at the Reggae Marathon this December 3 in Negril, Jamaica.  The spirit of Usain Bolt...and the finish line coconut water, Red Stripe and ocean swim...bodes well for a personal best.

Until next time...

Reggae Marathon: Tears mixed with Sweat

Can you say, "Glad that's over?"

After 26.2 miles along the Norman Washington Manley from Negril to Green Island and back, crossing the finish line of the Reggae Marathon at Long Bay Beach Park was bittersweet.  On one hand I had finally completed my unfinished marathon and on the other hand "I HAD COMPLETED THE REGGAE MARATHON!!!".  Tears mixed with sweat!  Then the coconut water, Red Stripe and dive into the warm Caribbean!  57 days to go to Reggae Marathon 2011.

Until next time...

Can you spot the difference between these pictures?

This was just weird.

I found these two pictures recently in Picassa. They were side-by-side and stopped me dead in my tracks.  I forgot I had sat for the picture on the rocks on Wasaga a couple of years ago; the one of my Dad while he was on vacation in PEI was from my sister.  How they made it into the gallery is a strange coincidence.

Until next time...

Reggae Marathon at 6 am

Describing the feeling of running in the Reggae Marathon is like describing a dream.  This photo at around 6 am on Saturday morning at around mile 5 about sums it up.  Thanks Sally (my official Reggae Marathon photographer) for capturing the feeling.

Until next time...
