Frozen Nose and Toes (and other events that we love)

Holy is this cold! Yes, we have been out in colder, I think -55C with the wind chill was the coldest, but I am older and much more wiser. No Freeze Willie! If you don't know that story you will have to ask Willie the next time we trot.

Speaking of the next time we will see those who are foolish enough to push the duvet off and put insulated underwear on when we meet at Eau Claire for a 9 am start on Saturday. We shall see some of you soon. Who might be there?

Crazies from the other week. From left; Joy, Peter, Allyson, Zoong, Jodi, and Carroll.

Or perhaps the true crazies of Tamara and John. 

and those above on the trot. Look, we found Willie!

A couple of events coming up that you might find of interest. First from Greg:

And second is one that comes from my first marathon coach and the reason I am what I am when it comes to left-right-repeat. I rarely ask but would you consider sponsoring our team and know that your money has gone to the Food Bank? In April's words:

Dear trotters,

I’ll be participating in The 11th Annual “Amble with Angus” on Friday, December 13th 2013 @ 7:30am. 

This 5km fun run is in support of the CBC Calgary Suncor Energy Food Bank Drive.

Last year Team- “Rudolph’s Runners” were the top fundraisers!  Please help us repeat our success for the food bank! We can’t do it without your help so please join me in raising money for a great cause by sponsoring our campaign. Just click on the link below and it will take you to our team page where you can sponsor us:

Or- there is still time to join us.  The antlers are free and really quite fetching…

 Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Cheers

April
