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.

Now that's what I call a sacrifice. I support it.

Just don't pick up the habit again after Easter, and you'll be good!

Now that's a smart move!

Ha! If only we could. I did fast walking as cross training in 2009, even some uphill fartlek. I am just not sure how much form changing can be done, other than your approach of loosening muscles up to help prevent movement, so it seems like you are on the right track.
