Islanders on the Run - Last Weekend in Cape Breton and Ottawa

Team PEI placed 15th out of 65 at the Cabot Trail Relay in Cape Breton, NS on the weekend.
The Cabot Trail Relay Race is a 185 mile/298km,
17 stage relay race through some of the most
beautiful scenery in the world...
beginning in Baddeck, Cape Breton, over steep
mountains in the Cape Breton Highlands, through
many small communities around the famous Cabot
Trail, to the gently rolling Margaree Valley.
To quote Kim Bailey -
"Everyone had incredibly strong runs...Stanley Chaisson blew the lid off MacKenzie Mt,
breaking a 10 year old record, and of course coming first! Billy MacDonald aced
Smokey Mtn and Dustin Gavin from
Tignish polished off North."

Meanwhile, at the ING Ottawa Marathon... Here are how some (but no doubt not all) of
our PEI runners did (click on the stats to enlarge):

Full Searchable Results

Congratulations to all of you (and all who were there that aren't in the stats above). We were glad to hear the weather cooled down a bit from the over 30 degrees C it had been at week's end. Very pleased to hear that Mike "Rocketman" Meacher and Rick & Judy West all qualified for Boston! Rocketman finished first in his division. Mike Murrins ran his first marathon, crossing the finish line with Cheryl Paynter. Cheryl is coming off an ankle injury and battled severe muscle spasms in her leg from 37K on but, not only did she finish in 4:26:02.2, she raised very close to $10,000 for Oak Acres Children's Camp on PEI. Way to go Cheryl!
Hope you all had fun in the Nation's Capital.
