Well yesterday we spilled the beans to a lot of you in one way or another but I guess I better put it up on here too. WE ARE HAVING A BABY! I'm guessing it's a boy and he'll run a 4:10 HS mile and have a marathon PR of 2:13. He'll also have stunning good looks (and brains too) along with a good guy personality. All joking aside we are sill early and Mik'L isn't due until around the first week of March. After years of waiting we can finally become parents and we both are very excited. 

8 mile morning run up around GS and home the long way through Middleton with Mik'L along side on her  bike. It was nice having her along to give me water and sing hymns along the way... j/k we don't live in Provo.

The hamstring is going to be a bigger test than I originally thought. I had April work it out for almost an hour on Saturday and it's back to being just as sore again. I'm not sure what it's story is but I'd like it to go away soon.

(Landreth 376.7) 

5 miles around the GS loop. Other than the left hamstring that is really tight everything else is feeling really good and welcoming the lessor miles this week.

(White Cumulus 475.1)

Congrats on the soon-to-be addition! Get all the sleep you can in the coming months cause that will be it for many enjoyable years to come.

Nice knock on Provo. Too bad you won't be coming to TOU 1/2- enjoy your extra free time. Plus, you will be able to sit comfortably, which wouldn't be true if you came to the 1/2 because of the butt-whupping we were going to put on you :)

Thanks James! Congrats to you and your families new little one. Sorry I'm a few weeks late on that one.

Hey guys, that is AWESOME, CONGRATS!!! Clyde, I am thinking about running the course this weekend, around 20 miles. Steve said he is coming, lets get a group and go for it.

Mike- Great- just tell me what time to be there.

From James W on Thu, Aug 21, 2008 at 00:15:29

Congratulations to the both of you! First baby in the family is always a big change, but it will be well worth it.

Congratulations! You will love the experience of watching your kid grow. It will change your life. I'm happy for you too.
