"Watch out for the Pauls"

I went to Esther and Gord Pauls' cottage to "relax" for a couple of days and do some work on the Gord Pauls' "Triple Ironman" event (swim, bike, run 678 km in 3 days!!).

As it turns out, Gord and Esther started training me!  One day I swam 1 km and then did a 40 km bike ride, then a 1-1/2 km run.  The next day I did the same thing and Esther added a 4 km canoe paddle.  Five days later I'm still recovering.

I have a real respect for Gord and his courage to do this triple ironman.

Please take a moment to check out Gord's website and consider doing what Elaine and I have done if you're able. Sponsor 1 km at $370.00.  You'll get a tax receipt and help Gord to reach his goal of $250,000.00 for micro credit loans in Haiti:  http://www.gordpauls.com/      http://www.empowerglobal.org/
