WOW!


Pretty proud of DH!! He did the ½ on Sunday in the MB marathon and did AWESOME – his actual time was 1:30:25 I believe. 4th in his age group and 46 OVERALL – out of 3951 runners doing the ½!!! He did the Winnipeg Police Service ½ in May and bettered his time by almost ½ a minute. His knee had been bugging him a little this last while so wasn’t sure if he’d run it. He only signed up a few days before… The event atmosphere was awesome. So many people. The only downside - as we waited for some of his friends to pass by – we watched paramedics working on a runner who went down just 1km or so before the end. Brutal. It was a scorching morning and people were dropping like flies on the course or as soon as they crossed the line. More power to the people who have run their own race, no matter what their finish time. My heroes…
