Long overdue for another post here. School is going great and I am having sooooo much fun with my students. They are, as always, teaching me so much. Native Studies especially right now is an area with a lot of ferment and things happening that is making it exciting and changing the very shape of the curriculum at times. Bill C-3, for example, which received royal assent and became law on January 31st this year, once again changes the future shape of Indian Status. What its' long-term implication are financially, socially, culturally and politically remain murky at best.

My training has been going very well, I feel. But we will see this Saturday when I do the 10k at the Saskatoon Police Half-Marathon. I'm hoping for a time in the 56 minute range, which is certainly way off what I was doing even 4 years ago. Age is definitely catching up to me. At least it is still as fun as it ever was, just not as easy. Also in the running world I am still blown away by the fastest ever in the world times from the Boston Marathon earlier this week. 2:03:02 for 26.2 miles is incredible.
