Dazed & Confused

Somewhere in the wide wide world of web, my blog, this lil ol marathon has reach some international running cartel.  I have had interest from 4 Australians & 12 Kenyans.  I say - you all should come - BUT - please know these things about the Westwood Lake Winter Solstice Marathon -
1 - There is no marathon committee - well, there is, but it is a committee of me. And really, I seldom refer to myself as "the committee".
2 - There is no prize money.  Any proceeds & all canned goods go to the local food bank.
3 - There are home made medals & home made chili & local made swag & good cheer & donated baking.
4 - This is a small, serve yourself kinda event - one aid station which you pas over & over & over again - that's all.  
Really, did I say it is low key?
Please come, by all means, but if you are serious, then know this is a teeny little thing on a relatively small island in a relatively small town.
Kenyans? Really? Wow.

Post Thanksgiving Marathon Blues

Ok, well actually not me.  I had a swell fun Thanksgiving marathon - Victoria was BEAUTIFUL - there were maniacs & wild life - & James from CeeVacs was there & we hugged in Oak Bay (I know, how lucky am I?)  In fact it was a day that made me remember why I love running marathons - a glorious day.
So in honor of that - I thought I better oughta post the 2 entries I have received so far this year - hopefully I will keep up on it - & remember campers - it's never too early to sign up - ok - it is - but NOW it is not too early to sign up - so SIGN UP wouldcha already??
