10K on the 10th

Another beautifully organised run, what a day!!

The weather was just perfect, a little overcast and pleasant temperature.

I had trouble rounding up my Pace Bunny, he was off way ahead of me before I knew it....I think he was chasing a Pony Tail....so that just left little Dino and me to suit up and get ready to hit the trail.

Luckily for us the Cave Lion Lily was happy in her den and we weren't bothered by her at all.

I think she'd been out hunting all night and was resting on a full tummy, well truthfully she'd just finished her breakfast.

Just the sight of her eyes watching Dino and me, well let's just say we were safer with her being in her den.


Dino was causing trouble, he kept trying to hide in my shoes....you just can't find a good dinosaur anymore, always causing trouble these youngster's.

Once we got the Dino out of the shoes off we went.
It was beautiful out, the trees are starting to bud, tulips and daffodils are up and people were out raking and cutting their lawns. A lot of renovations were going on, chainsaws and skills saws were going full bore, reminded me of living at Possum Lodge with Red Green.

Knowing that I have my final **23K run on Sunday, Dino and I just loped along doing our 10:1 (run 10 minutes and walk one) run....enjoying the sights and sounds.


We finally got back to the cave without seeing any of these....

All in all it was one of the nicest runs I've had in awhile, no pressure, no time, no never ending route......

And

it was done in 1:14:29!!!!

Thanks so much Nancy for Uniting the Cave people....yet again....you are the BEST!!!!

**You'll get a run report for tomorrow's 23K, we are running the front portion of the Marathon in downtown Ottawa tomorrow.....it will take us across the river over into Quebec and then back to Ontario, following the river up through a very prestigious subdivision....photo's of course will be included.....

talk with you tomorrow....

Life's fun if you don't weaken,

10K on the 10th of May!

When I first started off in blog land, somehow I thought I was going to be unique and start a blog about running, well, specifically all about my running...hahahaha, like you're the only runner in the world with that idea Lily....LMAO....After running the P.F. Chang Phoenix Half Marathon, with Rebel foremost in my mind, this is when I thought I'd start a blog.

How wonderfully surprised I was when I landed (don't quite know how, or maybe I just don't remember), on Notes of a Non Runner Nancy's blog.

I was then quickly introduced to Tom and Amy at the Runners' Lounge. The rest, as they say, is history...I've had the golden opportunity to meet all of you (yes, even my Canadian readers who don't post a comment, I include you too). You are all diamonds in MY day!!


So when I found Nancy she was organising a virtual run called


(I included the results page, just because I'm in it! LMAO!!!!)


I thought what a total riot and signed up!!!
And it was a total riot!!!

Nancy is so organised, that she just makes it that much more fun!!!

So guess what???


Yup,

Nancy is holding another virtual race;
Can you guess when???


~~10K on the 10th of May ~~





I am totally committed to this race

and

YES,

I have my pace bunny!!!!


I just love to have motivation when I run!!!

*giggle like a school girl*

So, if you're up for some fun, strap on your kicks, run your 10K race, and post it on your blog...let Nancy know that you're racing....and wait for the fun results.....

Thanks in advance to the great race organiser.....Nancy!!!!

I can hardly wait!!!

Life's fun if you don't weaken!!
