Unknown

Short-Term Running Goals:

Get fit again! Casper Marathon on June 8th in Casper, Wyoming. I don't have a specific goal time for it, as I don't know the course real well, but I'd like to shoot for 6 minute pace.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run for your life! Stay active enough to eat seconds and ice cream without guilt.

Personal:

Married to a beautiful wife AnnMarie, who is also a 3:15 marathoner and the mother of our handsome 2 year old, Myles and newbie Sullivan. Sullivant was born 2 years and one day after Myles was born. Myles knows only one speed--running all out. Kinda like Prefontaine.  Besides running, I enjoy reading, woodworking, fishing, and chasing Myles around our house.

Ran easy with Nick Fisher again, we headed east on the canal, got on the trail, and came home. I remember the feeling of coming from sea level to altitude, and it ain't fun. Nick will be fine after a couple weeks. Will probably run again tonight.

Joe, welcome to the blog. I didn't ever introduce myself to you after the Summer Games 10k, but I did talk to you for just a bit. Anyway, I live down here in St. George and train with a lot of the guys on the blog (Clyde, Wildbull, Holt, Steve O., Steve Hooper) It has been good reading your blog and seeing what it takes to be a top runner like yourself. Good luck in the move and the new teaching position. This fall I will be starting my 7th year teaching. I will be teaching Utah Studies. I hope you like living in Wyoming. I grew up in Craig, Colorado at 6500 ft and taught school and coached cross country and track in my home town for four years before moving down here to St. George (La Verkin) I think you will like training at a little higher elevation, I just hope the winters aren't too bad.

Hey, does that canal go all the way into Willard? If so I usually run on it when I am at my in-laws home, but I have never taken it all the way into Pleasant View before.
