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.

Trail run with Nick Fisher and Casey Snider. We started on the new Snowbasin road, and headed uphill toward Snowbasin resort. Once we got near the resort, we were a little above it and worked our way over to Green Pond trail, then down icebox to Wheeler canyon trailhead. Probably one of the most scenic and flat-out beautiful trails I've ever been on, even if it was fairly rocky in places. Saw two skunks, nearly ran over one about 15 minutes into the run, then we must have seen his cousin or something a few minutes later. Needless to say, we surged at those points, as they were fairly close to the trail. Really close. After the run, I drove to Rawlins, WY to meet my parents and pick up Myles. Had a heck of a time staying awake and alert, but made it home and even have some time to put some finishing touches on the kitchen before the vice-president returns from girls' camp. Planning on 20 miles on saturday, I need this run.

Good luck on your run Saturday. I'll be rooting for you, and I hope it is a strong one. May the wind be at your back.
