    Grand Canyon Adventure By Garth Campbell My Ultra experience By Audrey Stibbe B.A.A. Boston Marathon Report By Simon Pearson IAU World Championships By Jason Loutitt Stinson Beach 25k By Martha Mcneely Canada Day Race By Christine thate 1 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Susan Norrington There are many reasons why we run: to get fit, fun, lose weight, stress relief, mental reward, achieve a goal, increase performance in other sports, to name a few. So why do we join a running club? Running with others commits you to run regularly and makes it easier to continue running Advice from experienced runners on how to start running, avoid injury, ways to improve, good routes to run, how to enter events, how to run at different speeds and over different distances Motivation and enjoyment from running with other people, the miles slip past on your long runs Meet people with a similar passion for exercise and running Make new friends And many of us have. I feel privileged to have made some lifelong friendships in our club as I know many others have. Jim Sargent passed away on August 1, 2011. It was hard to say goodbye to a good friend who touched so many Harriers. He was a Prairie Inn Harrier in good standing from 2003 when he joined at age 79. He ran many races proudly in his PIH singlet and loved the attention he received at award ceremonies, where he not only received many medals but also many standing ovations. He was a true Harrier; he always took the time to applaud others and offer his support and encouragement.

All we can do at this stage is hope for the best. The NO campaign has been well run and has gained support from almost the entire world wide racewalking community. Let's not lose sight of what we want. • Keep the current 20km / 50km as the international racewalking distances until after the 2024 Olympics. • Use this extended timeframe to properly test the new shoe insert technology. • Work to enhance the current 20km / 50km events to make them more attractive to the general viewing public. • Visit this issue (if it still exists) again in 2024 once the shoe insert technology has been deemed to work (or not!) A few final bits and pieces from the last few days of the ongoing campaign. First, we have been getting some publicity from a few major news outlets.
