  1. E-Readers

    10/19/09 14:14:18 | 2 Comments

    With all the talk of e-readers, I have been constantly researching over the last few years to see what they have come up with and how far they have progressed. So far I like some of what I have seen but just not enough to buy. Why? One reason really...they are all still monochrome. I have been waiting for some company to develop a colour screen e-reader at an affordable price.

    The good new is, they have finally gotten around to it and one company...
  2. 42.2K & 3,000 Crazies

    What would make so many people want to run/walk a marathon? The challenge of course….being able to say you did the training and complete a marathon is a big thing for many of us. Ok so may be we are a little bit crazy, since it takes a lot of discipline and the willingness to train even in -28C. The Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon had some 20,000 participants doing either a 5k, 1/2 marathon or the marathon and it was a sight to behold so many people...
  3. Twenty Valley Niagara Wine Country Run

    What a race this was…I just finished the 1/2 marathon a few hours ago and I have to say this is toughest race I have ever done. This is the first year they held it and it was in a really beautiful location…Beamsville, Ontario where the wine estates are, hence the name. I would recommend it to anyone and in fact would like to return for a visit. If you get the chance to go you should do the wine tour and sample the wines and food there. Better yet, spend a weekend so you don't have to...
  4. Dedicated or Just Crazy?

    As usual, I went walking this morning. The plan was to do 16K but we only did 13K. Before I left home, I knew it would rain but for some reason I thought I heard them say it would rain later. Well I packed my disposable rain coat and thought if it rained I would be ok. When I reach my destination (High Park), one of the walkers reminded me keep my light walking jacket because it may rain. Stupid me didn't think to take out my disposable rain coat….I left it in her car. So we set off and...
  5. I got my First Medal Today

    Yep…I got my first medal today for participating in the 10K Sporting Life race. It was a darn good race too, especially since I walked/ran 21K yesterday during training. In fact training didn't go so well since I struggled through it and didn't think I would be able to finish it. I was able to get through it though but felt kind of demoralized that it was such a struggle. So today when I was able to do the 10K and at perhaps my best time ever I have to say I am not only very happy but...
