Swag

This afternoon I picked up my race kit for the Toronto Women's Half taking place this Sunday.

The top is nice and we got some great goodies.





I also picked up my 'costume' - a group of us will be dressed in these funky skirts with matching hair-ties.



Hopefully it won't drive me crazy!

I'm really looking forward to the event. It should be a great environment with all the ladies, some special treats along the way (firefighters! chocolate!) and my Mom is run/walking her first 5K!

Good luck to all the racers this weekend, especially Chic Runner who will be running her first marathon in San Diego!

Well, with a costume, you might be easier to find in the crowd. I'll be wearing a white short sleeve and a blue skirt with flowers.

That is a great course--you will love it if you haven't run there before--I did most of my long runs in preparation for Scotia through the Don system and Taylor Creek.

You sure race a lot--didn't you just do a half marathon last Sunday? You're going to chew up and spit out the STWM this year!

Good luck tomorrow; it sounds like a wonderful race. Tell your mom I said "way to go!"
