What's Next?


Three days after the race and I’m still feeling a little sore. My left hip and hip flexor are not particularly impressed with me, but I hope to soothe them with short, easy runs. I won’t crank out any fast running until I feel sure my legs have returned. I’m a little impatient, though, because Digby is less than two weeks away. If my legs are still heavy with fatigue, I’ll run slowly. I’m not expecting to win this year, but I’d like to put in a good showing. I mean, there will be royalty in attendance... the Scallop Queen is not easily impressed...

What I’m really looking forward to is running the Bridge Mile with my nephews Patrick and Daniel. They both seem keen on hoofing it over the bridge again this year. That event is coming up quickly – this Sunday. And then on Monday, I’ll be running the Natal Day 2 miler with Patrick. That’ll be two races in two days for him!! I’m overjoyed that he’s so keen. However, I’m a little sad not to be running the 6 miler -- but my legs will still be a bit burnt from the NS Half. There should be lots of Antiques to watch, though. Go 'Tiques!

Anyway... the picture above is a section of rail trail near Queensland. Just thought I’d show you one of my favourite running routes in the Hubbards area.

Happy trails!
