[Triumf-running] TRIUMF Walking and Running Group - Week of May 2, 2016

[Claire A. David]

Hi Robert, hi David,

Thank you very much for your kind words.

I would totally recommend to all runners that are considering this daunting
distance to give it a try (perhaps with a better preparation than us). It
is more than a race: you discover yourself, your physical and mental limits
and how you, only you, can push them. It's incredibly enriching and very
rewarding.

Looking forward to resuming the running sessions but first we need to be
able to... walk :)

Best regards to you all,
