Personal:

I am originally from Knoxville, TN and moved to SLC with Jake in 2010. I started racing in 2011 and had some great success before a major injury hit me in July 2012. I had athletic pubalgia surgery in May 2013...then again in Sept 2014 and am still trying to get back to my old self. Although running is my true passion, I love doing pretty much anything active outdoors - backcountry skiing, backpacking, biking, etc. 

I've been running for the Saucony Team since 2011. I enjoy representing the brand and really do believe they make the best shoes :)

I work as a Quality Engineer for BD Medical in Sandy.

AM - 2.6 miles around the block before my flight to WI. 9 min/mile pace - I must've been tired! Didn't sleep well at all last night - the storm was LOUD. Somehow water started leaking substantially from the top of the bedroom window, so that was a fiasco. I'll have to figure out how to fix that.

PM - One of the best trail runs I have had in a while. Met up with Erik (Hamdog Alum) this afternoon at Kettle Moraine State Forest in Wisconsin. First, I have to say that it was awesome to have a connection in WI to run with - that's why I love the blog! And Erik was great company. We ran on the nordic trails for about 10.8 miles with lots of rolling hills. The time flew by - it was just one of those runs when I remember how much I love running! I'm hoping that he will come visit in Utah, and I can return the favor.

I am jealous of the running on the nordic trails!

Thanks for the Garmin post. I think you've convinced me I need to upgrade from the 205 to a newer model! Thanks again for the awesome run!

You just passed three and went straight to four. I think you have to start back at one again.
