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.

Total Distance

5.20

AM - 5.2 miles really slow and easy with Jake. I need an easy day after the race and the long run yesterday.

I am SO HOT. Probably because it's still almost 90 degrees again today in Boston and no air conditioning. I got pretty overheated from being out in the sun for so long yesterday - and I didn't even race! Jake and I are both sitting on the couch with ice packs on our necks, head, and chests. I'm pretty sure we would both have a core temperature over 100 degrees!

I am so glad you didn't run the marathon yesterday. You are going to need a couple days to recover from watching and pacing :-)

ITS SOOOO HOT!

I hear you! I am so sunburnt and was sweating just walking to the airport shuttle this morning. Thanks for everything yesterday Andrea.

I better go read what you said about me. I know I am crazy when I run so hopefully I didn't scare you off. :)

Hey you guys earned those ice packs, and get out of the sun!

It said you were a lone faithful, so I thought I better leave a comment.
