From L to R: Jerry, Tracy, Deb from Buffalo, Heather, Mau P, Richard, Sue from Buffalo (leaning) and Kelly. Not in picture: Julie, Warren and Glenn. After a run and walk in the Don Valley, the Toronto Penguins ate Dim Sum at the Pearl Court Restaurant on Gerrard. Who braved the chicken feet? Richard, Deb and Glenn!
This was Deb from Buffalo's first Dim Sum experience. With a little help from Jerry [far right], she managed to get the hang of the chopsticks. Next year we make her try the chicken feet! Marathon de Paris

Sunday, January 20, 2002
From L to R: Tracy G, Kelly, Tracy M, Warren, Mary D from Detroit, Kathryn and Glenn. The Toronto Penguins held their first-ever "January Jazz" run on January 20, 2002. Joining us for this special occasion were Kathryn from Niagara and Mary D from Detroit! We started and finished this run at the "Rex" Hotel and Jazz & Blues Bar. Special thanks goes to Kelly and Dimetre who helped organize this run. Another annual tradition in the making! "Sayonara Summer" Group Run
Tuesday, August 28, 2001
From L to R: (Back) Kurt, Steve, Dimetre and Kelly. (Front) Warren, Marta, Tracy M and Glenn. Two words: Wings and Beer. Yes, W&B was our flimsy excuse for organizing an end-of-summer group run. Jacquie joined us at Whistler's restaurant where we "carbo-loaded" afterwards. Ahem. Road Trip to Kathryn Lye's (Short Hills of Niagara, Ont.)

From L to R: Glenn, Tracy, Kelly, Kathryn and Jacquie. The gang before the trail run. Little did we realize we were in for an hour and a half of mud, hills and singing!
Marcus (Jacquie's son), Tracy and Toril (Kathryn's granddaughter) at the post-run lunch. Notice the yummy cheesecake in front of them. Tracy made it!
Marcus, Jacquie and Kathryn in a lighthearted moment at the kitchen table. Marcus: "Mmm... Cheesecake!" Hoot 'n' Howl Cross-Country 5K (Manitoulin Island, Ont.)
Monday, September 11, 2000Race report from Paul in Northern Ontario
Date: Mon Sep 11, 2000
Subject: Subject: Hoot n Howl - Part Deux
Award winners: Paul (back row wearing glasses), Laura (far left in red)
Gang: The race was originally scheduled for last weekend but, we ran it as a fun run, as only 10 people showed. It was rescheduled for today but only 8 showed. Another 400km drive with my Daughter, yup quality time!!
They shortened the course to 5K but we still had to climb the escarpment twice. With the exception of us two and one organizer's son, they were all new runners today. Darn fast ones too. Two guys (one in 30-39 AG and one 50-59) ran this 5KM XC in 18:53 and 19:01 respectively. While telling everyone they really hadn't run much this summer, yeah right. The winner said he just resumed running last week. =:-0 hah, must have quit for a whole 2 days before restarting.
Anyone else ever experience the pre-race "baloney throwers"?
Good news, my daughter and I won AG 1st places. She at 23:25 and me at 24:57. This seems a little fast for the distance so I'm looking forward to a road race to see if I really have gained some speed.
We have a list of fall races on the fridge and I'm looking forward to more runs with my Daughter.

The first-ever big Toronto Penguin encounter at Sunnybrook Park. Included in the photo are the Vandahl, Ambrose and Gillam families as well as the two Joannes, myself (wearing the Santa hat) and Kathryn (wearing the antlers!) We retreated to the Wexford Restaurant for a well-deserved breakfast.
