I'm back...

So didn't want to leave the condo today...this I vow. I will live in Canmore. Yes, I will!

Meanwhile, had a lovely, relaxing weekend: part alone, part with H-woman and another friend M., ran a little 22k in the middle, and spent the last day and a half on my own again. Bliss...it was serious bliss. There was good food, good laughs, good wine, good coffee, good walks, good hikes, freaking.awesome.runs, and the most beautiful backdrop ever to enjoy it all in. Pictures to follow...I managed to take 138 over the weekend, but I was also playing with what will soon be my new camera, a Canon Powershot S3 IS. There'll be a good recap too, I hope!

But what I'm really excited about...Melissa's 22km was on Saturday.

Yeah Baby!!! That was on a very hilly course (elevation starts at 4,418 ft, and we climbed and declined another 592! ) into a blustery head wind that the winners (yes, the guys that did it in just over an hour!) described as "hurricaine, tornado" type wind. All I know is that it almost blew me over a couple of times, blew my running leg into my other leg (looked like I was kicking myself) and running past the sand-traps of the golf course was an extra special treat!! At least I don't have to worry about a face peel any time soon!

That's it...I'll provide more deets later. I'm trying to get my butt to bed, since it's back to work tomorrow.

Sad for me...
