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 - Ahhhh....oxygen! Short run around the block. After 5 days running/hiking/biking/playing at high altitude, my body was ready for the "low" elevation of SLC. Exercising at 8000-11,000 ft is HARD! We had a great vacation in Southern Utah, and I'm so glad that Amiee and Kevin joined Jake and me. A favorite picture from each day (many more to come on the wasatch blog the next few days) - 

 

 

 


 

 

PM - Strength training class for 30 minutes. Feeling the need to be lazy so no more aerobic activity today.
