Hey folks,

Just thought I'd let everyone know that my sista will be running in the Olympics. Yes, I'm bragging and quite proud of it :: She's running in the 5000m this Friday (Aug 20) - don't know what time it's at and I believe she's running in the 10,000m next Saturday (aug 28) as well. That one was under review by the Cdn Olympic Committee and looked more probable than not the last I heard. (But I've been away and kinda outta the loop)

Go Court!!!

Here's a link to her profile;

We'll be cheering her on, that's for sure. Liana and Katlin said they saw her interviewed on CBC television this morning ... not related to the race but to her room or the accomodations I think.

I'd be proud as well ... heck, I'm proud and and I really don't even know her, just her long-haired dancing freak of a brother! ;) :: :)

Peace, Mark

Just got the word that my sister will be running this Friday, Aug 20th at 4:30pm in the 5,000m

As well, she'll be on the CBC today giving a "Vanna White-type" tour of the Athlete's Village with Katrina Lemay-Doan. Should be on anytime after 6pm (was already on this morning but the CBC will replay it)

how long are you around for Meggo? Doesn't look good for drinkin' on the raft today (as much as I would love too!!) but we're running around taking care of logistics.

I was thinking Saturday for a day/night out at the cliffs!

What'd'ya think about that?
