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.

hi andrea -- nice to see you on here! i talked to you briefly after the race on saturday. i know you probably talked to a lot of people, but i was one of them :) anyway, you ran a great race -- congrats on the win!

i live right by sugarhouse park. let me know if you ever want to go for a run.

Hey Allie! I only live 2.5 miles south of Sugarhouse Park...I'm really surprised that I haven't seen you running around the area, given the amount of running we both do!

I would definitely be up for running together anytime. Jake and I are actually doing a long run down Emigration Canyon to BCC on Saturday morning (me 16.5 miles, Jake 23; ~7:15-7:30 pace). It is a mimic Utah Valley run. The only catch is that we are starting super early (~5:30am), but you are more than welcome to join!

thanks for the invite -- emigration is one of my favorite training runs. unfortunately, i won't be able to make it this saturday...i am cross training this week due to a shin injury. however, if all goes as planned i will be running again next week. i'll be in touch...
