I love the diversity that running races brings out these days. Just check out our poster boy today. I heard (I wasn’t there) that the running boom of the 70’s was mostly about fit people proving their fitness… Read More
Here are some random thoughts and musings from the road trip down to North Carolina and the first day here: People in the US are probably worse than texting while driving than Canadians. And they talk on the… Read More
The nice thing about the holidays is that I get to read more. I’ve been reading the Globe & Mail almost everyday and I just finished re-reading the great book by philosopher Eckhart Tolle. Didn’t Oprah make him… Read More
