A little busking and a lot of running


Next week, I'm working at the Toronto Buskerfest teaching kids how to juggle. I did it last year too and it was crazy, but a lot of fun. Some of the buskers were incredible, especially the break dancers from the Bronx, but there were no really good jugglers. I wish someone like Wes Peden (see video above) would come up here for the Buskerfest.

On the running front, yesterday I pulled off a double – six miles in the morning and 10 miles in the evening. The 10-miler included a seven-mile tempo. My training has been hit-and-miss, but yesterday was a big hit.

I'll be away until next Friday with no web access, so there will be no bloggling until then.

A short long run

I had to cut my long joggle short today because of a family brunch, but it was still a good quality run so I'm not too worried. Next Sunday, I'll be up in cottage country for a nice 24-miler.

Dianne and I have been busy putting together a portfolio for an exciting potential joggling sponsorship. If this deal goes through, I will bloggle about it pronto.

In the meantime, I'm off to practise my juggling for the Toronto Buskerfest..
