We love Montreal, our friends love Montreal, we're always looking for new race experiences and we get a great discount on a two-bedroom suite because hubby spends so much time in Montreal for work. So here we are!
No doubt many a poutine and crepe will be consumed as we take to the streets for three days of antics, running a little 21K along the way.
This race is part of the Canada Running Series and they are currently offering discounts for registering for 2-4 events. Time to start working on that 2010 race calendar.
***
On the workout front, tonight is H.O.T. (and I think I've recruited a friend from my running group!), tomorrow is 10K, Thursday is 6K with a buddy at lunch and Spin after work (then seeing New Moon!!!), Friday off and weekend long run distances TBD.
I've successfully lost 7 lbs since kicking off Project: Lean Mean Running Machine and I feel fantastic. All of my work pants are officially too big. I've been hoarding some gift cards so a shopping spree will be in order soon.
Don't forget to sign up for the HBBC!

Congrats on the 7 lbs loss! Very impressive in so short a timeframe.
Montreal would be an awesome place to race. I love Montreal!
Congratulations on the weight loss. Feels good, doesn't it?
Awesome on the 7lbs. Apparently I am storing up for the HBBC...
I love me some Montreal.
i had no idea what poutine was, which is sad since i was a french minor. thanks for the enlightenment!
Good for you! Since we have a daughter at McGill I should consider it as well. April in Montreal could be snowy though.
Very consistent on the workouts! And yay for losing 7 lbs. That has to make you feel good in more ways than one! As for poutine, what an interesting dish. Save that for AFTER the race.
7lbs! That's awesome! Congrats! I love Montreal as well. Don't forget the bagels.
That will be a lot of fun, makes me want to sign up for a race in another Canadian city...
