Best wishes to Barbara B., who should be back in person to congratulate!
Depending on how the city gets its act together, we may have enough of a clear path for a walk on Saturday. It will be cold but sunny according to current forecast. See you at L@8!
It will be a frosty walk Saturday, if you’re committed. Layers, layers, layers. On the plus side (maybe the only one), winds will be very light. Any distance is a win, and the coffee will be that much hotter. L@8…
A brief post this week.
It’s baaaack! Snow is on the ground as of this post’s writing, and likely to remain for Saturday’s walk. Be careful out there. L@8.
Please wish Olwyn a happy birthday today, Thursday January 8. And this Saturday, it’s Jan’s turn. 🎉🥳🎂
So far, it looks like Saturday morning is precipitation-free. Can’t say what the roads will be like though. Let us meet as usual and decide. Worst case, a short walk from Loblaw’s to Tim’s?
Will you be joining us for the first Saturday walk of 2026? Too much holiday treats might be a good reason, or just to be with a friendly group and exercise. The usual rendezvous spot, please!
While fewer of us do these now, occasionally a favourite comes along that proves tempting. Such is the Annual Robbie Burns Roadrace in Burlington. Details from their site below, and a link here for registration if you are disposed to attend.
The Robbie Burns Road Race is just around the corner. Join us for our 4k or 8k run Sunday January 18th. As a past Robbie B alumni you are receiving a special race discount code available to you until Jan 4th. You can save twice, beat our registration price increase on Jan 4th and use your discount code as an alumni (your promo code is ALUMNI) that carries a 15% discount. Spots are limited!
Come and enjoy a fantastic winter run through downtown Burlington and enjoy the Pipe and Drums, live band, and of course our post race porridge!
We would love to have you join us again this year.
We are the Shore Things
