Other exciting news for 2011 is Debbie has set her sights on her first full marathon - Chicago 2011 and QB will also be doing another full this year. It will be so exciting to watch them prepare.
As for 2010, it was our best year yet. In April Amy and Craig welcomed their first baby into the world. In May Wendy, Donna and Sandy all completed their first half at the Bluenose and then in December a few of us boarded a plane together to run with Elvis.
So once again, we kept ourselves busy...travelling here, drinking there and laughing everywhere.
Here's a brief recap of some of the 2010 highlights...
In June, we traded in our sneakers and sports drinks for heels and martinis to celebrate my big 4-0.
Nectar...our favourite restaurant.
But the Nikes weren't off for long as it was soon time to get back to training for the PEI Marathon coming up in October....road trip!
Can't go to PEI without making a stop at Hashem's Variety for some apples, sausage, turnips and Asics. (Trust me, we only bought the sneakers.)
hmmmm.....shinanigans
Trying to stay warm as long as possible.
It was a cold miserable day but we all got through in SG style
But the weekend definitely belonged to Sandy as she finished only her second half marathon in 2:17. What a sight to spot her 1/4 km from the finish line.
When I'm asked why I run, the answer is found in moments like this.
And then in December...we were off to Vegas Baby!
- 35,000 runners
- 300 Evlis (or rather Elvi)
- 40 couples who got married during the race
2 Oylmpians and 4 World Records
1 post race concert with Brett Michaels
And 3 Maritimers who will never forget the thrill of running straight down the Vegas strip.
Cheers Sweaty Girls. What a great year...here's to what awaits in 2011.

Nice to see the year pulled together. It gives more of a perspective of all the runs you girls did in one year...which was a lot. Congrats to all...mum
