Winter Event Update

Just a few quick updates on past and future events!

We had a great turn out for the holiday ski and lunch last Sunday at Birds Hill Park! It was a cold day, but the food was excellent and it was great to see everyone.





Michael proclaimed it to be the "best bacon experience of his entire life".

This week after a tough workout led by Chris, we enjoyed loads of holiday goodies! Thanks everyone for sharing your sweets.



An update on the Thursday morning ski- a small group of us are still planning on meeting at Shannondale ski area for 10am. Skiing will be followed by lunch at the Tim Horton's in Morden. If you are planning on coming, please send Carly an email as we hope to arrange some car pools!

Ski Day - Second Edition!

After a brisk refreshing ski on Sunday a few ladies are planning another ski day on Thursday Dec. 23 at beautiful Shannondale Ski Area just outside of Morden.
We will be meeting at the trail head around 10am (subject to change), skiing for a couple of hours and then either eating a picnic lunch in the warming hut or stopping at Tim Horton's in Morden.
If you haven't experienced Shannondale, it is a must! The trails are always in perfect shape and offer two classic loops and one challenging skate loop. For more information on Shannondale and directions, check out the Cross Country Ski Association website

The Importance of Post Work-out Calorie Replenishment.......

In the spirit of the holidays, as well as maintaining our glycogen stores, there will be a cookie (square, slice, torte, cupcake....whatever your specialty is...) potluck following the Sunday, December 19th work-out.
If you wish to participate, please bring a plate of your tastiest treats to share with your teammates!
