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 - 1.8 miles of running again in Kansas. Lots of cramping. 

PM - Had about 50 injections of dextrose in groin, adductor, outer hip, and back. He called it "sedative prolotherapy" indicating that maybe it wasn't as much or as intense as real prolotherapy?
