Congratulations to Claire and Gabriel! I can see the huge
potentiality on both of you to run much faster on this distance.
Enjoy the happiness of the first M run. Take it easy for couple of
weeks. David Wang

Hi Everyone,<br>
<br>
Congratulations to Claire David and Gabriel Palacino who
participated in the Vancouver BMO Marathon on Sunday. This was
their first marathon. Claire completed the course in 3:53:45 and
Gabriel finished in 3:42:05. Very impressive. Claire's comment
"Goodness, that hurts!" sums up what a marathon feels like.
However I think that within a few weeks, when they are mostly
recovered, they will make plans for another one.<br>
