Results to be noted
This past weekend the group went up to Comox for a fall get-away/ training camp. We did some great work around the trails in cumberland on our x-bikes and worked hard in the pool with a 200 TT ( at the end of a workout that had like a million main sets). I have been horrible at this blogging thing but I have wanted to mention a couple of results that I thought were pretty impressive:
1) My dad did his first ever marathon at the beginning of October. He placed 35th in his age group and had an overall time of 3:34.46....which to his surprise qualified him for the Boston marathon in the spring!! Without, I would say little training (he decided to do it about 3 weeks before the race) it is truly amazing and I was a very proud daughter!!
2) Connor and Brookie competed in High School X-Country Provincials about 2 weeks ago. Connor really made Claremont look good and is a high hope for the next two years! Brookie pushed through the end and I was very proud!! A little shout out to Mr. Nelly who is a great teacher and coach!! I just wanted to say that I was very impressed with the size of team he had this year and with his determination and support things will just get bigger and better...and faster!!
Now....not really results but exciting new things:
-Marc got a job!
-The walk-run group is becoming exclusively a run-only group!
-There is less than a month left of school
-I managed to do all of the cross rides at the camp with only falling once (on each side)
-I have found a new power bar that I am totally crazy about making and eating
-It is officially tea and scarf season!
-Training is going great and I cannot wait for the christmas camp
