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.

Looking good for Minnesota race
Imagine Blake's surprise (or horror) at seeing her editor in the Monterey airport at 5 a.m. before flying off to compete in the weekend's Medtronic 10 mile race in Minneapolis. Purely coincidence, Editor Dave and wife were off to Toronto to visit their daughter. Other than the surprise sighting, Blake's flights seemed to go smoothly, a good sign considering the disaster that was the Falmoth trip. The 10-miler has a Sunday 10 a.m. start. Good luck Blake.
