RUN FOR WATER – THEN THE OXYGEN!

Run For Water website at www.runforwater.ca

This event at Mill Lake is excellent and fun!
Hard-working organizers believe that this worthy cause, to quote Bono of U2, is not about charity, it's about justice! No argument there.
I dragged my butt out to the Abby starting line with two days training – next year I promise to train harder (maybe a week!). Guess the volunteers didn't like the fact it took me four days to finish a 5K. Guess I misunderstood the starter's love for camping. Me bad!
One of the kind organizers said I could improve my running time by shaving my legs and arms. I figured "shaving" off the burgers, milkshakes, chocolate bars and all-you-can-eat buffets might do the same, too.
Next year's run is May 30. See you there folks! I'll be the one with the "naked" arms and legs!!!
