July 3 Training Run Photos — He saw, She saw

July 3, 2011 Train­ing run photos by Ken Blowey are here and Karen Chow’s are here.

Thank you for run­ning across the Lynn Canyon Sus­pen­sion Bridge. (The sus­pen­sion bridge is not part of the race course.) And since the run­ners arrived at Deep Cove before the pho­tog­ra­phers, it’s Run­ners 1, Pho­tog­ra­phers 0.   :(

Oops, we goofed!

Both Glenn and I thought the other one would be out for today’s run.…  Well, as you noticed, nei­ther of us showed up and we sin­cerely apol­o­gize! We hope that your run went smoothly and you were all able to make it through with­out too many adventures!

Next week, we will be meet­ing in Deep Cove at 7:30 am  in Panorama park­ing lot to shut­tle to Lynn Canyon Park. We are doing the last quar­ter of the Baden Powell. This is our final offi­cial train­ing run until race day.

Have a rest­ful and healthy week,

Glenn and Patri­cia (He said, she said)

A per­fect day for trail run­ning with 70 of my best-est under-dressed friends!!! The sun was coming out, the trails were rel­a­tively dry, & there would be the pos­si­bil­ity of dough­nuts at the end of it all. Con­tinue read­ing

Sun. Blue sky. Warmth…. This is what  greeted about 70 run­ners last Sunday at the Grouse Moun­tain park­ing lot. “Normal” run­ning clothes were seen today. Gone were the hats, long sleeves, tights and jack­ets that we have seen for the last few months…. Replaced with shorts and t shirts…. What month are we in again? Con­tinue read­ing
