Chilly 1/2 Marathon
Colin ran in the Tim Horton's Chilly 1/2 Marathon in Burlington yesterday morning. This is the 2nd 1/2 Marathon he's participated in. He ran the Toronto 1/2 back in October. He beat his personal best time by 3 minutes and ranked 15th out of 84 in his class! I can remember hearing him say a couple of years ago "I hate running" and then suddenly he decided to pick it up and he's doing so well. His dedication amazes me. He goes out on the coldest, messiest days and also on the hottest, sweatiest days. I really missed seeing him cross the finish line yesterday and being able to get a good snapshot of it too. Seeing him accomplish his goals always makes me so happy and proud. Congratulations on another milestone!

Congrats, Colin! That's incredible.
I'm thinking of doing a 1/1000th marathon. You do a little bit here, a little there....
Seriously, it's a great thing. Wish I had the focus to get myself going like that.
Well done Colin. At the rate you are going you could be starting a klog.
Would that be a metric log of your achievements?
Congratulations. Keep going as long the knees hold out
