Rock Legend!




With today's Las Vegas Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon in the books, I'd like to reflect on what Alysia, Sean, Elissa, and I have accomplished:
  • 7 half marathons in 6 months
  • 13 medals and Rock Legend status!
  • 16,000 travel miles to 5 states
  • $10,000+ for registrations, airline tickets, hotels, speeding tickets, Michelin 2 star dinners, etc.
  • 470 running miles
We collectively agree that it's time for...a nap!

Thanks to family and friends that helped us through this effort, including flying in to watch kids.

Baby Ryan is here!


Please welcome the newest member of Team Thompson, Ryan Paul. He didn't want to come out right away but, after 16 1/2 hours of labor, he finally made his appearance. Mommy and Ryan will be home Thursday morning and Claire and Jay have their welcome signs ready.

Stats for the stats crazy:
  • Born Tuesday, February 16, 2010 at 7:00pm at Stanford's Lucile Packard Children's Hospital
  • 8 lbs, 7 oz
  • 21 1/2 in

A special thanks to Stanford Hospital for understanding our insistence on a vaginal birth and for having the facilities and resources (like an on-site anesthesiologist) that allowed us to wait a little longer and avoid cutting him out via a caesarean section even when the playbook said otherwise. Mommy and baby are so much happier and healthier today as a result! And thanks for delivering all three of our kids!
