QUOTE OF THE DAY

"I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win--if you don't, you won't."

Bruce Jenner, Decathlon Olympic Gold Medalist

This is a very quiet day - I don't know when the last time was that I did not train or race on a Saturday - but losing the battle with some bad oysters last night left me with food poisoning and a very sleepless night - so my body gets a day of rest which is probably a good thing and I will try to go out in the morning for 16-20k with some of my clinic members in Oakville.

Speaking of clinic members - the picture is of the "A TEAM" out of the Oakville Running Room - just prior to the Mississauga Marathon.

The response I have been hearing regarding the Brampton Half Marathon has been positive and the walkers are rallying to support the race that is willing to support us.

My hope is that some "WOW" walkers will come and support it as well - we all wanted walker friendly races - now we have one lets support wherever you are from - Running Room, WOW, south of the border - lets just support it!

May Stats --- Total KMs = 219k -- 5days off after Mississauga Marathon

Year to date -- Total Km = 1407k
