BABY! and a plan!

So.

As they say, better late than never.

Fergus Malcolm was born via unplanned C-Section on August 15, 2010 at 6:06pm. He was 9lbs11oz and 22 inches:



Next Friday, it will be two months since he was born and I'm itching to get back to running with the goal of completing the Mississauga Half Marathon in May 2011.

I aim to run for the first time tomorrow or by next week at the latest. This means a return to blogging as well!

Until then, let me show off a bit more:





Cheers! I look forward to many more positive training updates in the near future!

8 months!

As promised, here I am at 8 months pregnant (last week). It has been hot and humid in the GTA (however right now it is lovely!). The evidence is my hair!



I also am so big/low that I had to purchase larger/longer tops so that my actual belly wasn’t hanging out.

Still feeling good.

Still missing regular physical activity.

1.6k!

It is true!

I walked 1.6k today (in about 22 min).

Now that I'm 31 weeks pregnant, my aim is to get a daily walk in, hopefully at lunchtime. It was a muggy day in downtown Toronto, but it didn't stop me.

Of course, this is nowhere near the 5k, 35min runs I used to do, but it is something I can track again!

The walking is part of my plan to VBAC. Here's hoping it helps! The fringe benefit is that I can blog a little bit again.

Look for an eight month photo next week!
