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.

Half marathon thoughts
This year I am happy to be on the starting line of the Big Sur Half Marathon rather than the official starter like last year because I was coming off an injury. Though, I admit I did enjoy sitting in McDonalds eating pancakes with Quin while Jon was huffing and puffing around the streets of Monterey and Pacific Grove. Thankfully, this year I am healthy and I'm excited to run the race for the fist time. I run along Ocean Boulevard almost ever day, so I'm interested to see how it feels to race on it. It’s a nice rolling course, and there are usually pretty good crowds of spectators around Lovers Point.
