    It's Been Too Long..

    Since I posted a blog.  Wow, over two months.  What the heck have I been doing?  Let's see.. work, running, traveling back to Portland and Seattle, catching up with old friends in the City and just generally enjoying the New Year.  Hard to believe it's already Spring.  We've welcomed a couple of new bambino's already this year.  Becky and Scott had their second son this month and my best friend Jen and her husband Jim from Oregon also welcomed their first son this month.  Becky and Scott welcomed Casen Henry on March 22nd and Jen and Jim's son, Jacob Michael, was born on March 24th.  Casen seems to be a strapping young man and so handsome - CONGRATULATIONS EMMETT FAMILY!  Jacob was born 10 weeks early and is having some difficulties breathing on his own as he is quite premature.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Meurer family at this very hard time.
     
    I've been enjoying lots of Spring runs in Central Park.  It's just a gorgeous time of year here in the City.  Chris and I are planning to do the Brooklyn Half-Marathon on April 14th.  I can't say I feel quite ready to knock out 13.1, but it starts at Coney Island and just sounds too fun to pass up (did I just say "too fun", "run" and "13.1 miles" in the same sentence??).  If I have to walk some, I have to walk.  Let's just hope we have a great day for it!  Other than that race, I'm planning to do the Helvetia Half in Oregon again this June and would like to get on a Hood to Coast team for the first time again in six years!  We shall see what the summer brings! 
     
    Here's a pic of the ladies and Fro (lucky dog you) at the Shamrock Run in Portland a couple of weeks ago.  What a great time and Linds you're a great running partner!  :)
