thanks for all the prayers for Jen! On a good news story, one of my other nieces, Katie Maguire, came in second in public speaking for the whole Province last Saturday! She had attend various locations throughout the Province to compete and it all wrapped up last weekend...great job Katie!

Did a 40 k hike last Friday...I still have the blisters to prove it! I was doing great right up to the 27 k mark, I could actually feel the one blister start...pain.

Kristen (the gazelle) and Tanya Earle rocked the last part of the hike. They were mere specs on the horizon...

This was Tanya's first hike, she only did the last 20 on this one but since she is the boot camp queen; i knew she wouldn't have a problem with this. When we were in the van on our way back to the gym she said..."i thought it would have been harder"...I used to like her.

Did you know that a brisk walk burns about the same amount of calories in an hour as a run or jog? So...just get out and start walking. Speaking of walking, don't forget about the Hike for Health this June 19th...come out for a hike in the woods. As long as your not the slowest you'll be fine...the bears and wolves always go after the weakest link!
In just two days from now, tomorrow will be yesterday...interesting hey?!

I was in the Cops for Cancer Event two weeks ago...I still have the shaved head. Very little upkeep with the new style. I think I should get the Mr. T starter kit, get some gold chains and stuff. Maybe I should grow a goatee, look like a biker that has his Harley days far behind him and really should get the Moped out!
Big Dave out!
