It's been a week since the Toronto Marathon. I was in a lot of pain on Monday. My shin felt like there were little knives inside. 😱 I went to see Dr. Gill and got another round of electroacupuncture. Thankfully, the pain gradually subsided throughout the week. By the time I saw her again on …

Race Recap: Toronto Marathon 2019
Wow...Marathon #3 was tough. I didn't get my "A Goal" (sub-4) but at least I got my "B Goal" (PB). It was only 44 seconds faster than my @towaterfront42k time, but a PB is a PB! 😂 We met up with Sean, Jon, Vanessa, Denuja, Suba, Ravi, and Luis at the start. It was great …

What is my why
I love reading the signs during a race. They provide a good distraction. Most signs are funny and makes me smile. Apparently, smiling makes you run faster. It's true.

Thanksgiving Run
Happy Thanksgiving! 2 weeks to #STWM!! Today, a group of us subwayed downtown to run the second half of the #STWM route. Originally, our training schedule had us running 20k on Saturday and 14k today. It was Lisa's idea to swap the distances so we can run more of the #STWM route. I'm so glad …
