About me:
I'm was High School French/Spanish teacher for a long time then became a French language teacher for the Canadian Armed Forces. I've been retired for 10 years. In my youth that I played guitar and Keyboards in a Rock and Roll band until my early thirties. |
Why do I run:
I love to run because it clears my mind and allows me to think about things or problems and how to solve them. Usually I train indoors on a vulcanized track or on a treadmill in winter at my gym however this year I've been running almost every day outside because winter hasn't shown up yet and all the gyms have been closed for ages... |
Why I started running:
I played competitive racquetball and squash for many years and suffered from some serious injuries including one that destroyed my left wrist and my playing days. My wife was running then So I thought if she could do it, so could I. That experience was an eye opener! Let's call that a large serving of humble pie... Then, I started to run. |
