Hello everyone!  I am still alive and back running finally.  I read the book "Born to Run" and have really just enjoyed the running lately and not worried about my pace and how far I've gone.  My Garmin is currently collecting dust in my house and I am just worrying about making sure I start my Timex on time.

 I have been running anywhere from 3-20 miles a day over the last couple months.  It helped once cross country got started so I can run with my kids everyday (I have 40+ this year!)  I have been mostly doing a lot of trail running.  I am going to try a trail race sometime soon and see how I like it.  I hope everyone can forgive me for not blogging for a while.  Sorry!  I have missed all of you!

The great news about the last couple months is my wife Katey is pregant.  We are a expecting our first little girl in January!  I don't know if Katey really likes the name Prefontaina for a girl though.

 I ran 7 miles this afternoon with the cross country kids.  We did 2 meat grinders up Webb Hill.  The team did well expect I lost my lunch after the first one.  Oh well!

Welcome back bro!

Hope all is going good with Katey and you to Logan. That is cool you have that many kids out for cross, hope to make to a few meets.

Congratulations. What about Stevie for a name? Then you pay homage to Prefontaine and Hooper. Way to recruit BTW. Your team is massive.

Glad to see you back and loving life. I'm on about chapter 8 of Born to Run and can really see why you want to give trail running a try. I like the "new" personal comment. My wife is convinced of the same thing too...

Good to see you back here Logan. Congrats on the upcoming kid!
