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 - Brazil Day 5. About four miles running around blocks in downtown Juiz de Fora with my coworker. It felt SO good to run! Not ideal running area, lots of dodging and people and really bad smells. My knee became more noticeable as the run went on so I still need to be careful until this resolves.

Almost half way done with Brazil! I hope you are managing some fun. Careful with that knee!

Hey look at you, running outside!

Nice job getting the workouts in while out of the country. Definitely not easy to do.

Great that you were able to get out and run. Are you checking out the whole Brazil experience for when you run there in 2016?

Glad you were able to get out, even for a stinky run. Jake prefers the treadmill, but I don't think it's the same.
