boston qualifier - JUST !

so before i forget - and we all know i do that a lot - i want to give a huge congratulations to my client elizabeth lagrotta who qualified for boston last weekend at the goodlife toronto marathon. her chip time was 3:49:57. she needed 3:50:00 ! good grief! talk about cutting it close!!!!! excellent job elizabeth - you are amazing !!

had the girls over for ghetto gym on sunday and they tried out our new slosh pipes! kool or what. special thanks to our 'secret engineer' who put them together for us !

and i had an agreement with 'charlotte' that she could live in the treehouse as long as she stayed in the basement. imagine my surprise when i spotted her upstairs on the deck this week enjoying the sunshine! ack !

weather was fab the past few days so we held friday night club festivities outside in the parking lot. here's super strong sara after some running, kettlebells and push-ups.

jimmy after some nasty running and prowler pushing while wearing the 40lb vest. a huge reason why i do crossfit . . .

here we are getting organized for our fnc picture - as usual, 'house of pain' is trying to tell everyone what to do . . .

i wish i knew what we were all looking at in this one ????

ahh! there we go !!

saturday i rode the giant into bolton for some crossfit. spotted this little dude on humber station.

alex made me push the prowler around a few times and then do a hundred ghd sit-ups! feeling those today for sure! afterwards, i meandered over to caledon east for a few extra km's. what a beauty day to be on the bike.

then saturday evening i drove over to bellwood lake to do the trailer park thing with dave, tone and jenny! what a hoot ! made wicked smores with jenny's niece and nephews - sidney, john and andrew. we had marshmallow everywhere!

hanging out by the campfire . . .

my kindred running spirits - love these two now and forever.

and then sunday, i got up at 4:15 and was on the trail running by 5am. still dark but loving it. managed close to 2:30 and the legs were a bit tired. could have had a little something to do with that prowler workout though . . .

and one more day to play . . .

wait a minute . . .

i'm working most of tomorrow . . .

oh well - soon enough i'll be heading to alaska !!!

ARGH!!!
