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 - Was totally worthless and slept in until 7:20am. It's hard to be motivated! Will try to make up for it this afternoon.

PM1 -  Bike 20 min, elliptical 10 min, and some strengthening exercises. Had 45 minutes in between meetings at work.

PM2 - RAN 3 MILES! It felt so good to exercise outside and the weather is very nice for February...I went to the Olympus track and ran on their turf field. There was a slight numbing sensation in my big and 2nd toe, but no pain at all. Icing now, will try to run a little tomorrow too.

Sometimes a rest day is just what the Dr prescribed.

RUNNING! The turf should be nice on your foot. Glad to see things improving.
