Blake and I traded e-mails over the Thanksgiving weekend. She talked of running the historic trails on the East Coast with her husband, I talked of walking the shoreline on the opposite coast with my wife and son. She admitted being a little jealous. Why? It was about 35 degrees warmer in California. "When it comes to running, there's no one happier to touch down at Monterey Airport than me. This is just a great place to be a runner."
- Dave Kellogg, Blake's writing 'coach'
After Blake Russell competed for the U.S. in 2008 Beijing Olympics her life changed drastically. In 2009, she gave birth to Quin and the already active Russell household in Pacific Grove turned it up a notch. Russell is now back in training, hoping to qualify for the 2012 London Olympics while making an Olympian effort to be a good wife and mother.
