In my opinion, we have had a great winter of running. While
some of them have been slippery and icy we have survived and been rewarded with
amazing views and great adventures.
Jo Ann has offered to host the next book club and has also
picked a book. We will decide soon when the meeting will be, but the book is
“Terry Fox, His Story…The revised version” for those of us looking for our next
book to read.
I’m working with my sister (Amanda) who is going to be a
certified Yoga instructor next month on a day when she would be able to come do
a yoga session after one of our runs. I will keep it to one where we park at a
place with a nice grassy field and preferably when the weather is good (like no
wet snowy grass). She is working on getting volunteer hours and there was
interest at the last group run. I’ll keep you posted as to what I find out.
Our Tuesday and Thursday workouts won’t start until April…we
will keep you posted.
