marathon plans foiled...but new ones are born!!!

so i really was going to try and run a marathon this year. this has been a goal of mine for a long time now. but the wedding plans have spoiled this. there are two marathons in toronto, one the day after my wedding, the other two weeks later. so i have postponed those plans and instead just signed up for another half. the half is part of the toronto marathon two weeks after my wedding. we'll see how that goes. i really want to train hard and do a PB (i'm setting my sights are set on 1hr 40)...we'll see. i'll fill you in on that as time goes by. i've just printed off a few varying training schedules, so i'll flick through those and work one out.

i just have to welcome a few new people to the world.

Avery Keana (my niece, through upcoming marriage - Matt's sister Zoe and husband Chris) was born on Wednesday.

And

Jessica Lee was born to my friend from school (as in teaching) Jodie (aka truckie/desk buddy) and her partner Brett.

woo hoo. i am excited by these births.
