11th Reggae Marathon set for Dec 3

Still one of the world's best. And for good reason:

1. Reggae Marathon is super well organized and starts right on time at 5:15 am

2. Aid stations at every mile.

3. Reggae Music at every aid station.

4. Water and hydration available at every aid station in unique plastic pouches

5. Fresh cut coconuts, cold Red Stripe beer and a swim in the warm Caribbean at the end.

Do I need to say more? Actually, don't just take my word for it. Check out this link for the word from the Jamaica Observer about Reggae Marathon:11th Reggae Marathon set for Dec 3

Until next time...

100% chance of perspiration

This is our motto for Reggae Marathon 2011 Dec 3 in Negril, Jamaica.  First the 5:15 am start, then the coconut water and Red Stripe at the finish.  Thanks to my very good friend Tim Tobias for designing poster. It nails it!

Until next time...

The fourth runner in the family

She may not be a distance runner but in a sprint she is hard to beat.  Yes, this is Tia our Yorkie in full stride.  Approaching 9 years old now but she still loves to run.

Until next time...

Running on the beach

I've had a blast running on the hard packed sand of Wasaga Beach.  It's where I re-learned to run this summer after nearly a year dealing with a plantar fasciitis injury in my right foot.

There is one catch though.  Running on Wasaga beach only works in the summer.  The ice and snow that jams Southern Georgian Bay over the winter cannot be navigated safely.

Until next time...
