  1. My favourite road race, the GMS Queen City Marathon in Regina, SK, is still 2 months away. They added 75 additional spots in the 42.2km, and even with them, it just sold out. The 21.1k is already 71% sold out, too!

    Since 2020, I've run/walked the 21.1km, the 10km, and one of the 5kms virtually every year from Saskatoon. It's nice to have the flexibility to do it wherever in the world one is (and whenever one wants instead of having to be on course early on a Sunday morning!)

    This year, they're also allowing people to opt out of getting a race shirt and, instead, contribute $10 to charity, which is nice for those of us drowning in race shirts.

    If anyone wants to sign up for any of the remaining QCM events, you can get a 10% discount with the code JASMINE10 at runqcm.ca.

  6. Ran my 14th Bay to Breakers race in 1:57:12 this past Sunday.
    Almost 2min behind last year, from needing a 5min+ pitstop at the Panhandle.

    I skipped public transport (see previous years), and left at 7am to jog to the start. After ~3.5 miles I found my way to corral A and serendipitously my pal Henri, dressed in the purple grape costume he’s known for.

    Beautiful day for a run, cool and sunny blue skies from the start. The South of Market (SoMa) area seemed cleaner than usual which was a nice change.

    High-fived the Midnight Runners Raccoon Riot cheergang on Hayes street. Hayes hill was a jog / power hike slog like recent years with a pleasant downhill after. Except by the time I got to Fell street I felt uncomfortable enough to run out to the portapotties and took a while to deal with the discomfort. The prior evening’s dinner out at Thee Parkside was perhaps too much of a change for my system. Novel eats the night before a race a minor rookie mistake.

    The parties on Fell Street seemed particularly loud and crowded this year.

    Golden Gate Park was beautiful as usual, and I spotted a few November Project San Francisco (NPSF) folks near Blue Heron Lake (formerly known as Stow Lake). We gathered a few more and took photos in front of the Naga Sea Serpent sculpture.

    The rest of the race felt like a comfortable downhill til we passed the bison paddock. Normally where the race turns left at the end it turned right to a new southbound finish on Great Highway. Picked up the pace there to finish in 1:57:13 by my watch, only one second off the recorded chip time.

    This past week was a step up in running volume over the past few months, ironically a bit of a reverse taper. Including the warmup and race, I ran 29 miles total (Monday through Sunday). That was a big jump from the previous week so I hiked back through Golden Gate park rather than jogging it out.
