Things you find on the highway...

2011-09-03T19:35:00.000-07:00

Along the run I've found a lot of strange things on the highway, but THIS pretty much takes the prize.... I'm not sure where the body is, but then, maybe some things are better left unknown...

Change of Pace

2011-09-03T19:31:00.001-07:00

I've decided to take a break from running and head back to Alberta for a bit. Fundraising hasn't gone well in BC and I think I can do more for the charity here. The run is not over, I'm just adjusting my method to reach my goals so it may take a little longer than planned.
If you're doing what you've always done,
you'll get what you've always got.
This quote is true for all aspects of life. If what you are doing isn't working, there comes a point when the only answer is to change what you're doing.

Still, 640k in five weeks... not bad for an old guy

Okanagan

2011-08-18T11:30:00.000-07:00

I'm in West Kelowna today, 620k in.

Things are slowing down a bit. Fundraising hasn't been going as well as planned and I'm starting to rethink how I can step it up.

On the bright side, LOVE this Okanagan weather! Gives me the extra drive to push on!
