Personal:

I'm married to Nan Kennard and she kicks my butt at running.  She has beat me handily in every race we have done together except for a downhill mile we did once.  She is my running inspiration.  I'd like to run a marathon with her someday and actually keep up.

Wasn't able to pull off a run today unfortunately.

I've got to get out first thing in the morning or its a bit tough lately because I have found myself super busy with a lot of extra household duties on top of business stuff.

That is because our 4th runner is on his/her way into our family this summer.

 And we're stoked about that.  But it has completely sidelined Nan for the time being unfortunately.  She is going through the worst nausea of any pregnancy so far, puking 2-5 times every day for the past 3 weeks and needing to be laying down most of the time.  It's pretty intense!  I really hope for her sake it eases off soon.
