New Years Goals:

Run the Speedy Spaniard 10k on the 24th of July

and the Hobble Creek 1/2 in August

and St George Marathon in October :)

Baby is due June 2nd.  My previous 2 babes have come early...one 3 weeks and one 5 weeks.  So worst case scenario is lets say June 2nd.  July 24th would be 7.5 weeks post baby.  I can handle 6.2 miles then I am sure.

Hobble Creek would be 10 or 11 weeks post baby.

and St George would be 17 weeks...might be pushign it :)  Hey I can shoot for the stars right?

you can do it. Although it just hit me today, we can't run together outside this spring. I hope you can do it this summer or I'll be sad :(
