Rob Watson and his sunglasses have joined the Canadian Running family.

Canadian Running is pleased to announce the addition of Rob Watson to our list of regular bloggers.

Watson has in the past been a guest blogger on the website but he will now be moving LeBlogDuRob completely onto our website for hosting.

Watson is a top Canadian marathon runner. He was born in London, Ont., but currently lives and trains in Vancouver under coach Richard Lee with the British Columbia Endurance Project.

We’re excited to have him on board and we hope if you’re not already a regular reader of his musings about running, beers and cookies that we can help to get you hooked.

Below is a quick excerpt in his own words about the announcement:

Some may call me a sellout over this decision, and those that do would be 100 per cent correct! Canadian Running has offered me tens of dollars as my new host. Reality check here folks; in this life on the grind every damn cent matters! It’s gonna be cool though. The Canadian Running people are my buds and are also giving me the opportunity to write some stuff for their print magazine. I have my first article coming out in the next issue. How cool is that? Can’t wait to tell girls that I’m a pro writer. Chicks dig writers.
