Before they were grandparents, they were legends.
Last July, we held our first intergenerational storytelling event in Vancouver’s historic Gastown district and were able to breathe life into the photos and stories we share online. Next week, we are proud to host our second storytelling event in Vancouver’s  Athletes Village under the theme of sport titled, “Before they were grandparents, they were champions”.
Our event happens on April 26 from 1 to 3 p.m. - stay tuned for more information. If you, or someone you know, would be interested in attending our event, don’t hesitate to contact Lizzy at the RSVP details above.

It’s hard to believe, but only 40 years ago it was generally accepted that women could not - and should not - run a marathon. In this photo, race official Jock Semple attempts to force runner Kathrine Switzer from the Boston Marathon in 1967.
“Female runners can’t handle the strain. They could collapse. Or worse, they could irreparably damage their reproductive systems.”
My oh my how times have changed.
This article by Michael Morton of the MetroWest Daily News talks about the forty year history of women and the Boston Marathon - a fascinating read.

Video reblogged from Here's Some Awesome with 7 notes

Jimmy Kimmel and all the famous people ever, in one mess of a movie spoof

I tried to find something today that wasn’t Jimmy Kimmel’s annual post-Oscar mega-celeb sketch comedy piece, especially since (at NINE MINUTES) Movie the Movie is awfully bloated and rambling. But some of the individual comedy bits are so amazingly random that I can’t help but post this. The bit with the centaur alone — GENIUS.
