THURSDAY the 21st of October

Congratulations to Angela in Texas on her triathlon (1:24:54). And congrats to Tara Stephen and her daughter in their 3rd & 4th placements in the Blue Hills Trail Run at Brandon.

It's nice to do those events; to have a goal to shoot for. They're fun and exciting to do. We should all shoot for something. We'd surprise ourselves as to what we can do. "You can to it!!!!!!!............."

Three deer cut across my run this morning on PTH #83 at Ash Avenue. And the coyotes were howling and the stars and moon were out. There was quite a bit of light actually from the moon this morning. I did the Poplar Avenue route (clockwise) this morning, down 7th Ave. N., Legion Park and then Swan River Drive.

I had a good run but my Achilles heels are complaining. I can feel them when I get up and especially going downstairs. I am careful not to overstretch before running and warm up with a slow run over to the Arena, then stretch a bit more and then my run. After my run I do more stetching - the most stretching. Then an hour after that - I can barely get out of the chair or truck and walk. Darn things.... always something nagging away at the old body. I'll get over it.

Other than that; it's a beautiful day.

Keep give'nér,
gk
