A Different Kind of Race

I finally finished my race of pregnancy, labor, and delivery. It has been a tough past few months but all the work paid off and I now have a beautiful 9lb 8oz baby girl (I told you I was huge). I had an amazing natural delivery and was so glad to use water this time. If you want to read about the details check out my personal blog http://www.ryanandroxybrown.blogspot.com/ It is funny how when I am in labor I think of the challenges during a hard run, and when I am running I often refer to the difficulty of child birth... for me they go hand in hand.
Sophia is two weeks old today and I am already itching to start running again. I usually wait until about four weeks so we will see how my hips and pelvic bone handle running. Oh how I miss running! I am going to need your help as I start all over again...here I come ladies!

Congratulations! She's a beauty.

I have a Sophie too, by the way. She's eight years old now, but she's still my baby. :-)

Good luck in the coming months. Can't wait to get to know you better!
