Yesterday I woke up bright and early (well, early for a Sunday, but not as early as my normal wake ups for boot camp nowadays) to participate in my second Toronto Waterfront Marathon. Only this year I was participating as a spectator instead of a runner 🙂 I spent Saturday stressing over what to put […]

That’s right, Toronto is dark. There’s a power outage that’s been affecting something like 20,000 homes since 10:00 PM last night. And it happens to be the coldest night/day of the year with temperatures that are close to -20. Lucky me, I’m in the affected area. On the plus side, I had a terrific night’s […]

Yup, that’s my finishing time (chip, not gun) for my first half marathon. Not too shabby. I definitely owe you a post on the race. It’s coming. In the meantime, here’s an awesome picture of me at around the 8k mark:
