Less then 4 months to go before we can once again put the canoe in the water.We've set our sights on at least one race per month and hopefully more. Local Ontario races are the most convenient of course due to their proximity to home base. Mike is well located on the outskirts of Ottawa and close to both the Jock River Race and the Raisin River Race near Cornwall.
Here is our proposed schedule for 2010:
April 17/2010 • Upper Jock • Richmond • 12 kms
April 18/2010 • Raisin River • Sunday 30kms •
May 8 • Highwater Run • Kirkland Lake • 15 kms
May 28-31/2010 General Clinton 113kms • We would race on Monday May 31
June 5 - The Nonquon -24kms
July 24/2010 • North Bay to Mattawa 64kms
September 25/2010 La Descente• 19kms
The General Clinton is no doubt the most challenging of all the planned summer races.
I'm retired so I'm always available to go in any direction on a moment's notice but Mike has to plan carefully for each and every race months ahead of time.
But alas, we will have to put our dreams aside for a few more months yet as I am watching the snow fall gently outside my office window. Merry Christmas.....
