I participated in my first triathlon today. If not the hardest, it was certainly one of the most strenuous things I've ever done. It was "sprint distance" 500m swim, 25k bike, and 5k run. My time will be posted on the Black Canyon Sprint Triathlon web site tomorrow. I finished middle of the pack. My next goal is an "olympic distance" triathlon in St. George in May. I'd love to do it with any of my siblings, should they so desire--need to start training soon!

Baby Anders Gardner Griffin was born 13:03 on September 12, 2006. His weight was 7 lbs 5 oz and he was 20 inches. I was very impressed with Jolie's labor and delivery--she did it without any anesthesia, which is very unusual these days. She labored about 12 hours and pushed about 20 minutes at the end. Mom and Baby are home and healthy.
