Well, here it is! A picture of me with my Team Canada jacket. I will run with 3 other Canadians in the International Team Challenge Sunday, September 27. This morning at the press conference I met Fauja Singh & Ed Whitlock. Six years ago, at the Scotiabank Toronto Marathon Singh ran 5:40:04 a new 90+ marathon record; Whitlock ran 2:59:10 to set a new mark for 70+ and become the only septuagenarian on the planet to go under the magic 3-hour barrier. Today they are (I believe) 98 and 78 years old, respectively. Singh will run the 5 km and Whitlock will run the 1/2 marathon Sunday. Pretty spectacular, don't you think?!
Can't wait to see my men (Jonathan, Micah and Seth) when they meet me at the hotel Saturday!

Yah, big deal. Ben and I got 11 popsicle sticks at kilometer club on Thursday morning. We passed tonnes of grade 1 - 6 year-olds, multiple times.
Want my autograph? Want to take my picture?
(tee hee...)
Truth is - we're all super proud of you here!
