Boston bound

A note from the editor: Blake just let me know she'll be running in the Boston Marathon on April 18. Since having to skip the New York Marathon because of an injury, Blake and Coach Bob Sevene have been mulling a spring marathon before next year's marathon Olympic trials. Blake will also be running in the cross country world championships in Spain in March, something she hopes will help prepare her for the marathon.

Blake will weigh in with more on this later, including how she plans to juggle day care for Quin as her schedule picks up intensity.
