And that's a wrap...


For those of you who aren't on Facebook or Twitter, sorry for the delay in posting this on my blog.
My April 12 Rotterdam Marathon time of 2:29:38 made the Athletics Canada standard (2:29:50) for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil! So excited!
Read about it here in the Toronto Star.
And here in the Brantford Expositor.
Sure is nice to race for fun with no pressure or high expectations ... as you can see! Love the Ottawa Race Weekend. Despite pulling a hip muscle between Rotterdam and Ottawa, I was able to finish the 10 km as my season finale with a smile on my face! Looking forward to some upcoming race broadcasting and speaking engagements during my down time. I am ready for a well-deserved break. Photo credit: Richard A. Whittaker.
And here is a story  and picture from The Independent after running my hometown favourite, The Alvinston to Watford 16 km road race.
