Beautiful Weather For TISC Skaters At TBN’s Monthly Marathon

TBN held its first Monthly Marathon of the season on Sunday. TISC skaters took advantage of the beautiful weather to skate along the lake-front trail in Burlington. For pictures, click here.

TBN hosted seven TISC members at the first Hamilton Beach monthly marathon of the 2009 season on Sunday June 21. It was a warm sunny morning, which was only fitting for the first day of summer. Peter Doucet continued his winning ways, finishing 2.5 minutes ahead of Morgan Williams. Sarah Hopkins and Morgane Echardour crossed the finish line together. After our skate, some of us headed to Smitty’s in Burlington for lunch.

TBN will be holding two more monthly marathons at Hamilton on Saturday July 18th and Saturday August 15th. Mark your calendar now!
