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.

Brazil Day 2. It's HOT! Apparently it was Daylight Savings Time last night so I was ready to go with an hour to spare. Rode on the bike for 30 minutes. The open gym is probably 80 degrees - I was drenched in sweat with my heart rate only at probably 120 bpm.

PM - 30 minutes on the bike.

Wow that really is quite hot, especially since you are used to 20 degrees outside and 60 degrees inside!

It's 90 degrees today! If I can get outta this work by 6pm I might be able to get a tan :) The REALLY nice thing is that it is light outside at 6am and doesn't get dark until 8:30pm. I love sunshine!

Sounds awesome, at least you can fill up on vitamin D while you're down there.

Glad you made it. Sunshine and long days sound so lonely! Enjoy some rice and beans for me :)
