I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue. Love to run and be outside. I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible. Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Felt really good for this race. Started with Ericka, Luz, and Rachael and ran the first 2 pretty easy. Once I got to the damn I was on my own and felt really good so I just let myself flow down the hill. Felt a little tired on the parkway but was able to maintain a good pace. Pubic bone is sore know which means I probably will be cutting these half marathons out, but we will see. Apparently I had quite the little following, I had the words baby on board on the back of my shirt, and several people told me they used me for a pacer. I also noticed when I passed people they would speed up for a bit and pass me back, just can't let the pregnant lady beat ya (most of them I would pass back).

I absolutely loved this half.

8:50, 8:51, 8:10, 8:14, 7:46, 8:03, 8:16, 8:08, 7:49, 7:39, 8:20, 8:13, 8:12

Didn't stop my watch so not sure on the last .1 but I was passin people. This time matches my slowest non-pregnant half:)

Watched the marathon finishers for a long while and then had get back to our hotel for checkout. It is so fun to be able to see the full marathoners finish.

You're an inspiration! I'm not pregnant, or a woman, yet I'm inspired!

You're my hero. You ran a great race, enjoyed the day, and got to be with your sis (and me too!). It's been so fun to run with you guys recently. I truly enjoyed those quiet miles by the resevoir before I started eating your dust.....So glad you had a nice time on the course. Man, I've got to learn to run and drink sometime. Just remember what to say back when people say you ran a great race "even pregnant" :)

From JulieC on Sat, May 15, 2010 at 20:32:11 from 71.219.44.64

They are going to have to create a new pregnant division for you and RAD. Great job!

From RAD on Sun, May 16, 2010 at 00:49:43 from 67.172.229.125

You truly are amazing! I had a wonderful morning with you, and wished I'd had enough guts to keep up with you - but all my extra guts slowed me down :)

You need to run back in my crowd - once I started passing people, I could just hear the collective sigh. They didn't even try to pass me back...well, I don't think anyway :)

From Burt on Mon, May 17, 2010 at 19:33:21 from 206.19.214.144

Nice job Josse. Still trying to figure out if your spelling of 'damn' was a freudian slip.
