Day 8 Rain won't stop the walk!

... the 7 a.m. group

Breakfast anyone?

Day 8 Rain won't stop the walk!

This morning we were having three Walk on Strong sessions so that everyone could do their long walk before race day on the 23rd.  The weather did not cooperate (which is unusual because the sun always on us!) and we actually called a rain day.  I went to the Waterloo Public Square for 7 a.m. and we had 5 walkers there!!  The hale and hearty group for sure.  I actually convinced them to come for a coffee and breakfast because it was pouring rain and there is enough time before our event to get their 20K walk in.  By 8 a.m. it was looking a little better so there was a 10 K group that headed down the road. When the 9 a.m. 5K group got there the weather was almost clear so off we went for a great 5 K walk.
The picture above is of the breakfast afterward and I have to say bravo to all for getting out there on a rainy Saturday morning.  We are going to try it again tomorrow at 9 a.m. for the Half Marathon group and anyone else that would like to join us ... wish us luck!
Walk on Strong!
