 National Capital Marathon

I want to thank you and the members of The Lyon Street Celtic Band
for performing at the 2006 Ottawa Race Weekend.
 Once again the participants and spectators really appreciated
 the talent and enthusiasm you provided during the marathon events.
This year Ottawa Race Weekend attracted nearly 30,000 runners and again raised
more than $500,000 for the Ottawa Hospital. Please join us again in 2007.

Thank you so much for your music and enthusiasm.
  It was such a great location too.  I was getting pretty tired
 and was looking forward to seeing your band.
  Lucie and I were thrilled to see you,
 and it definitely gave us a boost of energy.
The music helps the Km's tick by a little faster. 
It was a great run; it felt so nice to be a part of it.

I have to say that the music and entertainment along the course was inspiring.  I LOVED the Celtic band right at the beginning and the belly dancers sure made an impact - I know I felt a little less chilly after seeing what they were wearing!  For a minute I imagined I was in a warmer climate. 
Thank you to you and your colleagues for making my first ½ a very enjoyable (if that's possible) experience, and for Rob who's last marathon was in 1994, it rekindled his love of the event.  Volunteers were amazing and the vibe was brilliant.  Well done.
