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.

I wouldn't trust him...what with his uphill race ambitions and all.

Don't worry, I'm planning to go on his blog when he's not looking and change all his mileage to the third decimals place.

From Jake K on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 18:31:29 from 67.177.11.154

No!!!! I'll change my password. No decimals on my blog anymore... Everything rounds down to point oh.

From Andrea on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 18:35:57 from 67.177.11.154

That's so stupid. Rounding to the lowest 0.5 is conservative enough, it's just silly and inaccurate to round to the lowest 1 mile. And I'm sticking to my lowest tenths rule because its the best.

From SlowJoe on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 18:37:46 from 66.69.93.8

I rounded UP the other day. Haven't been struck by lightning yet.

From Jake K on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 18:38:37 from 67.177.11.154

I round up every time I finish a run at X.0X according the Garmin :-)

From SlowJoe on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 18:42:20 from 66.69.93.8

So 1.01 rounds to 2, and 1.99 rounds to 1. Seems reasonable.

From Jake K on Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 19:01:09 from 174.239.98.190

1.01 goes to 1, everything rounds down. 1.01 on a watch is probably under 1 in reality.

And now I am the bad egg of running
