Nine Cruisers attended a very informative talk by Dr. Mason Shore Monday evening at the Centre. His talk was run specific, identifying several injuries common to runners, causes, and relief, often being a correction of a malady affected by a deficiency in some other part of the muscular-skeletal system. Much discussion ensued, questions being asked, which resulted in good discussion. Dr. Shore left us with a few simple limbering-up exercises to use before embarking on our run/walks. The meeting lasted close to 2 hours, time well spent, with participation by all there. Our thanks to Mason! Dr. Shore provided business cards, and is open to responding to emails re: running injuries. His email address is: drshore@auroramed.ca Office address, 4212 Dawson Street, Burnaby, at Aurora Integrative Medical.
Five cruisers out Wed night. Rene, Laura, Libby, Edie and Rod. Edie and Rod walked up to the base of Underhill and back 6 km. 1h03. Not sure about the rest. Think they went to the old IGA, but Edie and I went home before they returned.
