Today is Canada Day! Yippee a Stat holiday in the middle of the week. We have been dragging a bit since our return home. Perhaps a combination of a 95 mile run and jet lag. ;-) Last year after WHW we spent a few days shuffling around London listening to our bodies perhaps a bit better. This year we flew home on the Tuesday and started back to work on the Wed. So the holiday today was brilliant! Slept in...run/hike mid day...nap...caught up on a few chores...fantastic day. Even better we both took tomorrow off too! So a nice 4 day weekend of nothing. I start a new position at work on Monday so the timing is perfect for a restful weekend. Next weekend is the KneeKnacker - Canada's knarliest 30 mile/50km trail race in North Vancouver on the Baden Powell Trail. We are both registered but my knees are feeling a bit knackered from WHW so I will see how they feel in the next few days. Neil is good to go (as always!) I hope to do STORMY 50 miler in August. STORMY takes place in Squamish BC and it is one of my favourite courses. This year we did a few training runs for WHW in the Squamish area and what a network of trails there is. Tonight as it gets dark the skies will light up with Canada Day fireworks in communities across the country. As we say...I AM CANADIAN!
