My neighbor stopped me the other day and asked, “Don’t you
have a big race coming up?” When I told him the Olympic Trials on Jan. 14, his
reply was the “the real Olympics?” Yep, this is it the real Olympic
Trials, not the fake ones. I am starting to get excited though. I have to say, I am really pleased with
how things are going. It seems like the more I do, the better I feel, which is
something I have not been able to say in a long time. That’s the best Christmas
present I could ask for right now.
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.
