Waterloo Half Marathon, Canada - 2003

Before heading off to Carriage Hills Resort, Nadia, Kiren and I drove to Waterloo for the race. Only about 170 odd people took part in the half and a few kms into the race I discovered why. The race route wasn’t exciting at all. We ran thru some farm lands stinking off cow feed etc. The scenery was mostly flat apart from a few rolling hills. I didn’t enjoy it a bit and half way down the course I was dying to reach the finish line. I finished the race in my usual time and got presented with a clay medallion. After some stretches we left Waterloo, dropped Kiren off in Mississauga and drove to Horseshoe Valley.

Nadia decided to accompany me to the race since she felt guilty of me going to the races by myself. It was also during her final exams at York but felt it was impotant for her to support her husband (How nice of her!). Before the race start, she told me to run faster so that she can go home and study.  The race route was amazing, went past beautiful estates and country side. The weather was sunny but slightly chilly which was ideal for running. As per Nadia’s wishes, I did finish the race a little quicker than usual. As I was approaching the finish line, I looked around to spot Nadia so that she can take my picture. I smiled and raised my arms but to my disappointment, Nadia was no where to be seen. After about 10 mintues of finishing I finally saw Nadia running towards me. ….her excuse, she over slept in the car !!!!! Oh well ! at least she came to support me!
