More Olympic Spirit!







The Paralympics are here! And what a reason to celebrate! The city has come alive after a few days of rest. The opening ceremony was a fantastic celebration of overcoming the challenges life can deal us. Neil and I ran Saturday on our local hill and then I had to hit the books before we departed for the Saturday Vancouver Canuck's Hockey game against Ottawa. We Won 5-1!! Today we ran a loop of Hayward Lake 17km - it was great to get around as it has been closed for the last year due to seismic upgrades on the dams. It really is my favourite local training ground.
Enjoy the photos of the opening ceremonies, myself with Finn the Canuck's mascot and Hayward Lake this weekend!
