Dean Karnazes' Book Tour

As you know, Mrs. Shop. Jog. Blog of Michigan has finished her book. She had a very difficult month. It is still up in the air whether she can do the Detroit Marathon next month. She hasn't run for a while due to shin splints. She has been recovering nicely. Guess where the book is flying to..... I will give you a hint....


Fat fat fat chance that you won't even recognize the Flag of an important city ? I guaranteed that no one from this country recognized this Flag unless you have gone there for vacation. It is a country that, WE, (I hate to say this but its the bloody truth!) don't even recognized. It's Canada but which city? Let me ask you this.... Anyone know who is the Prime Minister of Canada? I feel like a dipshit now. I don't even know who the Prime Minister of Canada is. Trudeau? I had to find it on the internet and its Stephen Harper. Ring a bell??? NOT ! The only thing I know about Canada are the wonderful beer like Molson Canadian.
Anyhow, the flag is the City of Ottawa. The Capital of Canada! Our great neighbor ! The book is now flying to the home of Lily on the Road of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. She will be the third person to read the book. (Here's the rules!) I am excited since the book is going to a different country. I hope the book will make it through the custom.


I am still waiting for a picture of Mrs. Shop. Jog. Blog with the book. As soon as I get from here, I will be posting it.

Have a GREAT weekend and GOOD LUCK to anyone that will be running in races.

Go book, go. Take off you hoser, eh.

Well then I guess I need to email Lilly RFN and get the book from her. Save us both on postage. (I'm in Ottawa too.)

Yeah, Stephen Harper. (Also an election going on here. He'll probably get re-elected.)
