November 21, 2007

I wanted Alex to write the marathon post since it was his first marathon and I thought he would give you a fun perspective, but he’s been so swamped at work lately, it doesn’t seem like that’ll happen anytime soon.

Less than two weeks away…

October 24, 2007

And we are falling apart! Earlier this week while moving something, Alex sprained his ankle. It seems to be getting slightly better, but with less than two weeks before he has to run 26.2 miles, he really needs to be fully recovered. He’s been religiously practicing R.I.C.E.

October 8, 2007

Falling WAY behind so here’s a quick set: TOAD: Sept. 26th, 2007: This is really being the brand I guess. TOAD: Sept. 27th, 2007: Karen ordered pears from Fresh Direct fully expecting normal, human-sized pears. What we got was a plastic container filled with these ridiculous, little mini pears.
