It’s a nice day for a white wedding

I know Billy Idol wasn’t really singing about a wedding but it was a nice day for a wedding, so it sounds fine. On Saturday Eric (Gillis) and Emily were married in Guelph on a fabulous day.  It was a nice ceremony, fantastic lunch and a fun time at night with the bride, groom and the Speed River crew. 

I stretched my running streak to four days in a row. Wawa wee wah!  I’m still moving in the right direction and feeling better from week to week.  I’m going to try some strides tomorrow and see how running a little faster feels.  Now that I’m at the point where my calf doesn’t hurt much it’s great to enjoy running again. 

On Sunday I went running with T-Bone (Taylor Murphy) and Cal Staples on the Run for the Toad course.  The course is pretty challenging as there never seems to be a flat spot and there are plenty of turns.  It’s a great course and a fun run although we picked an awful morning as it rained the whole time.  Thanks to George, Peggy and Mark we were able to navigate the course, otherwise we would have been completely lost.  We ended up running about 55 minutes for the 12.5km course, but I’m sure that effort would have been about four minutes faster on flat terrain.
