My wife has our little baby boy! About a week and a half early but healthy nonetheless. :D :D

Should make for the last few weeks of training/tapering for IMoo pretty darn interesting!

Now, if we could just agree on a name....

Fabulous! A million congratulations to you both!

LOL...
Actually, his middle name is Dunn after my mother's maiden name and my grandfather. Since there are no males on her side of the family we figured it was a cool way to kind of keep the Dunn name in our area!

LOL...I am going to let him take this week as a recovery week then he can start working on his base. You know that 0-20 age group can be tough!

For the record, first and middle names are Joshua Dunn. Pics to follow once wife decides to download them from the camera.

And doing a 105 mile ride/4 mile run brick on Saturday afternoon once we got home and settled was brutal! After 2 sleepless nights on a foldout chair in the delivery room and nothing but hospital food for 2 days it was however a great way to harden one's resolve for an IM!
