Run during an approaching hurricane in the middle of nowhere in the Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland

Finally signed up for the Montreal Marathon today. Will have to train through my 12 day grad student trip to Newfoundland the next 2 weeks, thinking of starting a morning running group then (there are at least a couple other recreational runners going on the trip)

I dedicate this run to my dear friend Nicole Williamson, who was able to walk away from a plane crash this weekend that killed 12/15 people on board on impact with only broken bones, major bruising and severe psychological trauma. A real miracle in the midst of a tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are for a speedy recovery for Nicole and peace to the victims and their families.

This whole thing really puts things in perspective, I would like to thank each and every one of my friends here on Attackpoint; orienteering is a fantastic sport but it is the amazing people that have made the last decade truly special for me.

Another solid pickup game of ultimate frisbee.

First long run of the season, felt a bit weak around the 50 minute mark, but had a gel at the 60 and 90 minute marks so was able to get some speed into the last hour. Was able to push the tempo a bit, so really pleased with this run overall

Softball game, I did some pitching, outfielding, and went 3/5 with 3 runs

Took a couple of rest days after my first real run in a couple of months, wanted to fully recover and not push myself too far too soon

run late night around Montreal, killed it, felt fresh the whole way. About to start a new training program, this time I mean it, really motivated to represent AB in COCs 2012, comfortable that I can schedule my time as a grad student around training

bike to St. Ambroise brewery, so perhaps not the highest intensity but still a workout
