May was busy! 

At the start of the month my Running Room marathon clinic invited me to provide an overview of the work that Start2Finish does.

It was a great opportunity to raise the profile of the charity.  I received some generous donations, and even recruited a couple of coaches for the Ottawa programs.

The weekend before the marathon I was in St John's, NL for a family holiday.

Visiting friends, walking, eating, drinking, and late nights = a great vacation but not an ideal taper week!

Whilst on a training run there I did stop at the Terry Fox 'Mile Zero' monument. It seemed fitting to visit a memorial to the godfather of Canadian charity-running during my year of fundraising.
