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 - The cold hit me pretty hard last night. Typically when I get sick, it's really bad for 2 days and then I'm better. So if I just sleep all day today I should be feeling good for tomorrow. Lifted weights/strength training for about 45 minutes.

PM - Ran up to meet Jake on his run home from work. 6.3 miles, nice and easy. Got to wear capris for the first time in about two months.

Jake and I are heading down to Provo to run tomorrow, about 8 min pace, meeting at the Tabernacle at 9am if anyone else wants to join. I would love to meet some of you that live down thataways!

Awww! I'm sorry your sick. There's nothing worse. I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Whoops. I meant to type I'm sorry "you're" sick!

Thanks for the link to the one-legged strength training article :) Gave me some motivation to get off my bum and do more of what I can do. Happy sleeping all day!

Rest up hope you feel better soon! I know this time of the year can sometimes feel like a grind. You're doing great with nursing the sore spots. Everything will come around.

see you in the am!! As you know we planned on the Provo half course but what do you think about when we get on the trail at the lake we just stay on the trail (if you know the area, it continues on) until it gets to the end and meets up with University Ave (mile marker 24 of the Utah Valley Marathon) and then continue down University to the Provo Tabernacle :D. so happy to have you come with us. hope you are feeling better.

Hope you are feeling better and enjoyed your run this morning. :)
