Dec 27 - Sole Sisters on the Ski Hill

Hope everyone had a great Christmas! In case someone might read the blog this week, I'll just post a quick note about the plan. Leslie and I (Kari) are planning on skiing up at Telemark instead of running. We'll be ready to start from the lodge at 9:20/30ish if anyone wants to join us. It will be an easy going ski since I ate too much Christmas baking and Leslie hasn't skied in 15+ years. I have an extra set of size 7 boots and ski's if anyone wants to borrow them--just post ahead of time so I can bring them. Rentals are also available.

Hope to see some more of you out there! Miss you guys.

Sat December 20 - To Run or Not To Run

Well....not sure if anyone is contemplating running in this cold weather. I'd like to because all this inactivity is interfering with my love of food (I'm getting fatter and fatter and I can't do up my snow pants). I'm going to show for 7:30 unless I post otherwise early Sat morning if no one else is going. Layering is the key!!

For those who might check this post, that didn't read the blog last week, Peachland is sponsering their first 1/2 marathon on April 26. Read previous week comments if you want more info or you can just ask me.

Hope to have some company this Sat! Merry Christmas to everyone if we don't connect.

Kari

Ha Ha Ha!!! December 13th!!

I am not sure if any of you are even checking this blog .. with snow outside, it is almost hilarious that some of us would even consider a brisk satuday morning run... in the snow...
I am up for it... but I will play it by ear because we dont know what the night and early morning will have in store for us , weather wise.
I will post tommorrow morning at 7... for anyone who might like to be an extremist with me and say that they have done some " winter running"
Happy Snow day!
Karleigh

December 6th

Hello girls...
I'm heading out for a brisk walk tomorrow... I think Karleigh said she's coming out too... I'll plan to finish at 8:30 for something very, very, very warm.
Any one else up for a crisp am run/walk/sip??

See you tomorrow,
Dawn

A Snowy Run?

Hi Ladies,

Hellloooo ladies! Couple of things...

1) For those of you who have been training for your first 10K or first Half Marathon in 2 weeks... WAY TO GO!!!! I HOPE YOU CAN FEEL A COLLECTIVE SWELL OF PRIDE FROM ALL THE OTHER SOLE SISTERS! YOU GIRLS ROCK AND WE ARE SOOOOOOO PROUD AND EXCITED FOR YOU!!!

2) PLEASE make sure you read STEPHANIE'S POST below about the great big run for Africa. It is SUCH an amazing way to make a difference and I'd really encourage you to check out their website and see what you can contribute to this fundraising effort! WAY TO GO STEPHANIE! check out Partners in The Horn Of Africa at http://partnersinthehorn.org/

3) Who's up for a run tomorrow?? I'm going to give my knee one more chance tomorrow before I decide about whether or not I can do the race. Looking forward to seeing you girls before I head out to "work" :-) Who's gonna be there??

4) Colleen W? You Back from the Cops for Kids ride??

Have a great Friday night!
Dawn

Great Big Run for Africa!

Hi Ladies,
We are at it again. I am looking for your support to help raise funds for women in Africa to support their families through the creation of their own businesses! Apparently our donations over the past three years have made a huge impact and the recipient organizations are planning to move into more rural areas. One of our coordinators of the run took the opportunity to travel to Africa late this summer and is more impressed with what our funds have done than ever.
I am not sure that I will ever afford the trip...but I am so motivated by the stories of others.
The four of us organizing the event have set a crazy goal of raising $100,000 this year. We started out with $7,000 when I ran the 100km and then it rose to $30,000 the following year and over $40,000 last year.
So I have to pull up my socks and raise more money. Patty and Dawn ran with us last year....and anyone is welcome to join us but I have to say that fundraising is the name of the game. So, if you would like to donate or run and fundraise, let me know.
I will try to make it out one of these Sat. in the near future. I will definitely be at the half Oct. 12.
Love you all!
Stephanie

Saturday, September 20

Hope everyone had a good week. I know there is a group of ladies running the race route in Kelowna this weekend but for those who aren't, feel free to post your times. Hope everyone has a great run and a great weekend.

Colleen and I are meeting at 6:15 and are looking forward to Bliss afterwards for anyone who is around.

Kari

September 13th!

Ladies Ladies Ladies!!
Who's up for a beautiful fall run this Saturday??

Holy Crap it's September 6th!

Is anyone else taken aback by the date already???

I am looking forward to seeing you Saturday am... it's been FOREVER since I've made it out. I have injured my knee but am hoping i'll be cleared for a short, light run and I don't work until 10 so I can have a quick coffee with a few old friends before I need to take off.

Anyone else going to be there this Sat? What are your plans??

I'll be there at 7am for a quick one.

Leslie? are you back??

August 30th...

hey hey happy long weekend!

I think tomorrow is the last Saturday I have to work at 9:30, so I'll see you all NEXT saturday... hope you all have a great run tomorrow and am looking forward to seeing everyone again soon now that summer is sadly coming to an end :-(

Dawn

As for tommorrow, Who is up for a run?

Hope to see someone else there...
Karleigh

Sat Aug 16th

I myself am going to do a hills focus, so going left from Bliss and up to the two hills. I have to work so I can't stick around long... going to start running at 6:45 if anyone wants to join me.

Who else will I see there?

Dawn

Saturday August 9

Scary, I actually managed to get into this blog! Unfortunately I don't have any witty comments or jokes, so straight to business...just wondering who's running this Sat? I (Kari) am running at 6:00 from Bliss and would love anyone to join me. I'm looking forward to treats and company afterwards. See you then!

Saturday, August 2nd

Hi Everyone!
So this week I am out of town camping and am making up my runs before I leave... so I wont see y'all on saturday morning, but I thought those of you who would like to meet could post when you wanted to go and then someone else might find a time to meet you! HAve a great weekend! See you next week...
karleigh ( filling in for Dawn)

Sat July 19th

Hi Girls!
I'm going away on Saturday and will miss 3 weeks, so if someone else can keep the blog going, that would be great!

Just e-mail me before sat if you can't remember how to Sign In and create a post!

Thanks girls and I'll see you on Aug 9th!

I'll think of you while I run in Oregeon, Idaho and Edmonton!!

Dawn

Saturday, July 12

Well Ladies, are we going to have sweltering heat or wind & rain storms on saturday am??

I know a few of us, (in anticipation of sweltering heat), are going to start at 6am.

Looking forward to seeing a bunch of ladies out! We've missed a few "regular" girls lately and it's been nice to see a few new faces out too!

I'm driving from Shannon Lake this week... who can I pick up?

Dawn

Saturday July 5th

Shall we try our two start times again? seemed to work ok last week... unless anyone else has any feedback?

Post what time you plan to start so everyone knows who to look out for!
enjoy the rest of the week!! Looks like Saturday will be a tad cooler!

Tracey--good to see you out on Saturday! Sounds like you did really well!
Colleen U.-- are you ok? we heard you had a head on collision with a sandwich board! hope you're all healed up!!

Dawn

Bunch O' Stuff...

Hello girls!
A couple of things to think about & note...

1) NEW RUNNERS...
I have gotten to know a couple of lovley ladies, (Hi Deanna & Tracey!!) who are considering starting running for the first time in a while... if there's anyone else lurking at the blog, wanting to start running but afraid to do it alone, I just want to encourage you to post a comment and make yourselves known. It's so much easier to get started when you have a friend or two at your level. BE BRAVE AND INTRODUCE YOURSELVES! Maybe we can introduce you to our "coach Stephanie"--she's got great programs to get you started. Give her an e-mail if you have questions or would like her professional input. Here's her link:
active8fitness.ca

2) SATURDAY START TIMES...
It seems that we've got a wide range of times/distances that we're running on Saturdays... I know for myself and a couple of others, we want to get started earlier in the am so that we get more time to relax afterwards with all the girls. So, how about two start times for now? Anyone who is interested, (probably those running longer or with places to go afterwards), will start at 6:30 this Saturday. I'm sure that's still a little too early for lots of others, so I'm assuming there will still be a group starting at 7:00. As it heats up, we may want to adjust our start times again, but for now I think this will work for some of us who are taking longer to get our KMs run than anyone wants to sit around waiting for us:-)

3) OUR VERY OWN COP FOR KIDS!
Our "Sole Sister in Uniform" is getting ready to do the Cops for Kids bike trip!!

If you're not familiar with this program, check it out--it's a HUGE endeavor! If you would like to donate online you can do that, or Colleen will happily accept your pledges in person! WE'RE PROUD OF YOU COLLEEN!!
Link HERE copsforkids.org for more info or to donate!


4) OKANAGAN 10K/HALF MARATHON/MARATHON - OCTOBER 12TH!!
Just a little heads up that the registration fee for this event goes up July 1st... NOW IS THE TIME TO COMMIT AND PAY!! Would love to know who is planning to run which part of the race! Who's ready to make it official? Let's see how many Sole Sisters we can get registered this week!
events.runningroom.com/site/?raceId=3273

5) FRESH AIR EXPERIENCE... MY NEW SHOE GUY
Just wanted to let you know about a fabulous experience shoe shopping Michelle and I had at Fresh Air last Sunday. We had THE BEST shoe guy, his name is Jason and he was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, took plenty of time with us and we could not have been happier. And with our new shoes, well... all we have to say is, "Look out fast girls."

June 21st... Can we Beat the Heat?

hello sole sisters!

Who's in for a run this coming Saturday?
Also, who's thinking we might need to start a little earlier pretty soon (maybe not this week?)as it's going to get hotter and hotter!

Looking forward to seeing a good group out! We're starting to really miss a few faces! Nancy, how's the knee??

Saturday June 14th...

Happy Friday Ladies!

Tomorrow is Saturday... who's in for a 7am run?
I can't wait! I didn't get out at all this week...

See you 7am @ Bliss!

RACE DAY PHOTOS! In no particular order...

What a beautiful morning! Steph pulled out the big guns and got her PB... everyone did great -- and a special shout out to Michelle who really shone this morning! (and was definately the fastest of the "slow girls"!) This was Deb's first race, and of course we were delighted to have Miss J. join us too... as she smoked her mom across the 5K line!

I'm waiting for Fresh Air to post the official times... but in the mean time here are a few pics of the morning! I think we're missing a couple of people here... terribly sorry if we didn't get you somehow between the 2 cameras.

CONGRATULATIONS GIRLS! I'M PROUD TO CALL YOU MY SOLE SISTERS!!

Hello ladies!

It was a beautiful morning in East Kelowna! Stephanie made awesome time (46 minutes, I think!) and Mel ran her very first 10K!!!! whooo hooooo!

We decided as a group it was time to start a little earlier, so begining next Saturday we'll meet at Bliss at 7am. If that's just too early for you and you prefer to start later, post your thoughts and maybe someone else will want a later start too!

Looking forward to a good run next Sat, and then most of us will NOT be at Peachland on June 7th as Sunday the 8th is RACE DAY!

ALSO REMEMBER THAT THE REGISTRATION FEE FOR THE WOMEN'S RUN GOES UP JUNE 1ST, so get your registration in this week and save a few bucks!

have a great week everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

HAVE A GREAT LONG WEEKEND!!

Striking A Pose -- JUST FOR YOU!

Okay, Okay...
I'm really frustrated because I wasn't able to find "the perfect" new shirt for us. So, the next best thing are these green t's ($11 from Walmart!) I bought every shirt thye had and think I think there are enough of them. If not, I also got some of the same shirt only in a turqoise color, which looks nice beside the green, so if a few of us would prefer turqoise they'll still look great together. (I hope you enjoy the modeling:-)



I am kind of feeling like the whole point of doing new shirts was that we wanted tanks or little cap sleeves... but I haven't been able to find any. Second to that, some of us are sick of the pink ones. So, I think what we have here is an option for those who want a new SS shirt or didn't get one last year. Also, we kind of think that these shirts will be lighter than the pink ones, which someone noted were a little hot.

To further complicate the issue, apparently the technical t's I ordered samples of have arrived, so I'll bring them on Saturday too... I think they are going to be too boxy, but we'll see. I know they will be more expensive.

All this to say...Order a green one if you want one... don't if you're happy with your pink one... and if we need to dip into the turqoise onese, let me know if you'd prefer that over green!

Don't forget to read the post below... and WHO'S COMING OUT THIS SATURDAY??

IMPORTANT MATTERS OF BUSINESS!

LADIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you all had a great weekend and that all the moms got to kick back yesterday!

A few things we need to discuss...

1) Shirts
I need to know who would probably want one and what size they would probably need.
We narrowed it down to one shirt, but we're really hoping for more of a tank style... so I'm going to give it one more week to see if I can find anything. I've looked almost everywhere and finding a tank style, without a racing back, in the right material, and is not white, black or pink, with all our sizes in stock, is TOUGH!!! I'm hoping Costco will have something new tomorrow when I go. Otherwise we'll go with the green tee's in a lightweight fabric. COULD YOU PLEASE RESPOND AND LET ME KNOW WHAT SIZE YOU'D LIKE? I'll keep the list updated (Karleigh, Patti & I have tried on the sample shirts)

Dawn - S
Karleigh - L
Kari - S
Alexis - M
Kim - S
Patti - L
Danette - M
Leslie - M

Bobbi - M
Michelle - M
Mel - L
Stephanie - M




2) EAST KELOWNA - MAY 24TH
Who is into driving out to the race route on saturday the 24th, rather than going to Peachland? I know some of us would like to do a stop at the farmer's market after wards... I've never been there but I'm sure there are places to grab a coffee or snack there. I'm suggesting we leave the westside at 7am. Post if you're interested in a little change of scenery (and farmer's market), or if you plan to stick with Peachland on that date. Also, I'm sorry I forgot the registration forms for the women's race. I'll bring them next Saturday, or you can download the form from the Fresh Air website.

WOMEN'S RUN INFO IS UP!

Hey SoleSisters!!

Fresh Air has the race info up and it's time to register!! The race is Sunday, June 8th and is always a great day. We'll have to stick with tradition and go for Natchos at Red Robin again, right?? I'll bring a bunch of reg forms on Saturday and will be happy to drop off any forms and cheques!

I wonder if anyone is interested in switching locations one Saturday coming up. If we drove out to East Kelowna, ran the race route and then perhaps a stop at the Farmers' Market? Would anyone be into that?? I'm going to suggest Saturday the 24th.

Otherwise, who's coming out on saturday?

This Weekend and stuff

hey girls!!
I'll miss you this weekend as it's our big Creative Retreat for the store.

I met up with my buddy Gord (who apologized for the neglect we experienced in the fall)... I have searched high and low to find a nice wide strapped tank or sleeveless running shirt and they are not to be found in shirt-printing shops in town. Gord IS willing to print on "other" shirts if we can find them, so I'm going to see what Costco, has but if we want them for June we have to get on it.

He's bringing in samples of two shirts... one shortsleeved tee and one longsleeved one (just so that when the time for long sleeves comes again we'll know if we want this one or not.) I'll bring them NEXT weekend and we can decide if we like them or not... I'm so bummed I can't find nice running tanks... but we can take a look at these or just hold off until we find the right tank.




Have a great run on Sat! I'll miss you! Dawn

Running on the 26th?

Hey Ladies,
It's MIA Stephanie here. Just wondering what time you are all running at these days. Is it still 7:30am? My youngest wants to get running again and I thought a Saturday run on the flats in Peachland would be just the thing! We'll be doing 5 & 1's which would be good for anyone just getting back into the swing o'things. I am crossing my fingers for warmer weather!!!
Stephanie

Any brave "soles" out there?

Sorry I didn't post a blog this week. Dawn, when you go away we just all fall apart! Just curious, did anyone brave the snow and go out for a run? The rest of us applaud you. Apologies to anyone (Amy, Rebecca??) who might have been waiting for me to pick them up. We should have at least gone to Bliss for a ham and cheese biscuit in honor of Michelle doing the Sun Run this weekend! We're proud of you, Michelle!
Hopefully we'll all be back on track next week.

Cheers!
Patti

APRIL 12

Hellooooo!

Looking forward to a good run on Saturday... I hereby commit to doing 5, yes 5 "10 & 2's"... and Karleigh, Mel and Michelle are with me, right????

Just a thought to all you who have been contemplating running for the first time or the first time in a while... I suggest you post a comment that you want to start "at the beginning" and I'll be there will be another gal or two who would love to have someone to start with, maybe doing some shorter intervals. Make it known and I'll be you will have company!!

Who else is in this weekend? Looking forward to it!
Dawn

April, baby!!

Saturday the 5th.
Be there.
All the cool girls are coming.

:-)

miss those we haven't seen for a while... Leslie, Linda, Bobbi, Dannette... the list goes on :-)

Yvonne? Are you back from Kiwi country??

Mind over Matter

So it's looking a lot more like Christmas out there than the end of March. Who's gonna be tough and brave the chilly snowy morning?
There's always a hot & yummy coffee waiting for us at the finish line....

Saturyday March 22nd...

Hey guys!
I did post last week, but apparently it didn't "stick!"

Anyway...

Who is up for a run on this beautiful long weekend?

I'm planning to be there but I have to work earlier so can't stay too long, and I'm gong to take my own vehicle.
Mel is sick, Michelle is out of town, Amy's coming...

And???

MARCH 8/9

It was a beautiful day for a run this morning... way to go Yvonne for making it out!

Just a bit of a heads up for next weekend...

The Penticton Lakeside Resort 5K is NEXT SUNDAY! I would LOVE to be there, but the race is at 10 and I have to work at 12, so I'm going to have to miss this one. It's such a great run, so if anyone is interested in going, post here and maybe there will be a bit of a group!

Next Saturday I will be working a special event, but who's planning to run Sat??

Other important dates to note:
April 6, Oliver 10K
May 18, Penticton half & 10K

March 1st... that must mean spring????

Hey ladies!
Who's up for a run tomorrow??

I fully plan to go but I've been feeling up and down all week, so we'll see...

who's in?
who's driving?

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday,
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday night's all right.

(Sorry, I'm feeling a little Elton John-ish at the moment!)

Saturday night might be alright for fighten, but Saturday morning is nothing less than a fine time to run.

Who's runnin'?

Don't be afraid!

There are the fast girls, and the really slow girls (like me) and we all welcome more company! I think there were 7 of us last week... can we beat that!?

OH!! And poor Leslie hurt her back carrying her big, injured dog... so heal well and we'll see you soon!!

I'm driving from Shannon Lake.. who wants a pick up??

Anyone else need to run off those valentine chocolates?

Who's up for a run this Sat??
Might I suggest BLISS BAKERY AT 7:30??
We had about 7 of us last week... good to be getting back to business!

If you haven't been out for a while, WE MISS YOU!!!
If you're new and have been checking out the blog, WE WELCOME YOU!!

As for the Usual suspects... who wants to drive from Shannon Lake this week?

LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!
Dawn

Is spring on the way??

Hey ladies, it's looking pretty good out there. Who's in for a run on Saturday? I like the idea but I can't commit one way or another for tomorrow. Who might I see if I can come?

Patti

A Frosty February Run??

Hey ladies!!!
I was somehow believing that it would be spring when I got back.
Not so.

Who wants to brave the cold this Saturday?
I will be there... looking forward to seeing some long lost faces!
Have fun skiing, those of you who are choosing the slopes over coffee & a muffin :-)

Dawn

Run? Ski? Stay in Bed?

Everyone surviving January?? It's been feeling a little "Albertaish!" I've missed seeing you at Bliss. Anyone planning to run this Saturday? Let us know if anyone wants to meet. Dawn, are you back from the Tropics?
Once again I will be up at Telemark with the family.Speaking of Telemark, I am meeting Kari on Friday at 12:30 to go up for a little x-country ski. Anyone itching to come along??

Patti

coming???

I need to know that some one is going to meet me there so I can get myself out of bed in the morning. So who's coming?

who's in?

So I am not nearly as witty as Dawn, but I do know how to make a posting on the blog.....so who's in???

Alexis

Seriously...

we gotta run this Saturday!
Who's in??
I promise I will go down there and if it happens to snow or be icy or whatever we can coffee... but let's give it a try, ok?

WHO'S WITH ME, PEOPLE????

I MISS YOU ALL!
