    Tom-AE-to, tom-AH-to…let’s not argue semantics

    You go out for a run, and it is cold.  I mean really cold.  You warm up after while, and it’s not so bad.  Then you get home, your hat and eyelashes are completely frosted over, your skin is all pink, and you feel invigorated.  You also feel a little puffed up because despite the weather, you went out for a run, and you think, “look at me, I’m hardcore!”

    Then someone does look at you, sizes up the frost, watches you stomp the snow off your shoes, and says: “You’re crazy.”

    A runner for just over four years, Karen has already completed a marathon, two half marathons and a variety of 5k and 10k races. She describes her first marathon - the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon last September - as "a nightmare." However, she met a very interesting person in the process - a man named Sydney who was running his 152nd marathon! Although the race didn't go as well as planned for Karen or Sydney, he showed her that no matter how experienced a runner you are, you can still have a bad day. "Does that mean we shouldn't bother to prepare, or maybe just shouldn't bother at all? Of course not!" says Karen. "In the end, it is what we make it." We like her optimism!

    1. So true 🙂 I listen to friends from warmer climates complaining when it gets below 10 degrees C and just chuckle!
