A delayed, and wonderfully unexpected, graduation gift

Wifey is expecting our second baby and it turns out he or she was conceived on graduation week!

I can't state categorically that running the C25K will boost your fertility chances but you never know! It was a long 19 months of trying so it is quite possible that C25K is some sort of magic. Or running for 9 weeks builds up your stamina and leads to a general vigour ;)

Anyway, I am pretty excited and Wifey has graciously allowed me to let my fellow C25K mateys know.
