Two weekends ago over 12,000 runners and walkers competed in the Victoria Marathon. It’s a fun and community focused event. As part of the weekend there are ample activities such as a 1km kids run and an 8km run. Many children participate in both these events. My son William, who is twelve, entered and finished the 8km distance. I am a super proud mom, especially since he confided that there were times he wanted to quit!

- The Games Begin
As the Olympics descend upon us, the critics of these Olympic and Paralympic Games in Vancouver are being drowned out by slogans of “We Believe”, “Go Canada Go” and “Own the Podium”. We can almost taste the medals “we” are going to win, and we can be promised stories of courage, overcoming the odds, and sheer and awe inspiring excellence.
