Tall tales and bad jokes following Westminster Trails

With no mud at the Westminster Trail, the group looked presentable at Farm Boy for coffee following the run.

Damn Kids These Days!!

Whats up with kids these days?
Why are they out on a Saturday morning hosting an end of trail  run refreshment station,when they could be home smoking, watching cartoons and surfing the internet sites they were warned NEVER to go to?
(oh wait....that's what I was doing)

A special thank you to Erika B's kids for coming out and putting together a fantastic aid station at the end of the Meadowlilly Trail run. Fresh fruit and cold drinks were available for the sweaty group.

No Bull, It's a Bison

On a recent trip to Edmonton to meet up with one of the very first of our trail running group, and the guy who introduced me to the Pacers, my best bud, Bill N.
Bill was also the guy who got me into wilderness adventures all over Canada...like the West Coast in BC, Gros Mourne in Nfld and kayaking in the Yukon.
On my visit I had the opportunity to do a trail at Elk Island National Park.
Bill said I would have a good chance of seeing some wildlife, but I figured from a long distance.
Well not even a 1/4 Km in on the muddy trail, there standing off to the side was this mountain of prime burger meat. (sorry vegans)
It was a wet & muddy slog, but was a blast and highly recommend it.

The blog has been updated with trail dates right up to the best attended trail run of the year, our Mars Bar and Champagne Trail  Run at Komoka Trail. Proving that trail runners will show up in numbers when offered chocolate and liquor.

Also, you best get your entry in for the Phoenix Trail Race so you wont be disappointed and have to be put on a waiting list.
Entry info can be found from this link: Phoenix Trail Race Registration
