We went to the hospital first thing this morning.....ended up staying until 7pm.

But....the GREAT news is that I now have a wonderful GRAND-DAUGHTER who was born at 4:29pm!!!

 If I can figure out how to put a picture on here I will.  Can't seem to figure it out.....

It was 50 degrees this morning.  I ran a mile to our group run.  I ran a few miles with them before finishing with a couple miles with Bob Fisher.  Total 6.14 miles.  

This will be our last group run this year since the local marathon is over.  Guess I am back to running by myself again...

It was 47 degrees this morning.  When I walked out my door, Lowell and Terry were running by so I ran my first mile with them before they turned at the fairgrounds and I kept going down Chubbuck Road.  I ran my standard 10 mile loop nice and steady.  My quads are still not fresh after the marathon but the IT band seems to be better....strange.  Total 10.41 miles.
