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.

7.1 miles at the beach, 8:12 pace. The humidity is quite a shock to the system - so much sweat! I'm really happy with the run and can feel my stride starting to come back. Now for some maxin' and relaxin' on the beach.

My new reality. I'd say running in humidity is harder than running at elevation. Glad to see things headed in the right direction for you. You were right, so far Alabama has been a good place. Miss you all though and those mountains... I changed my desktop on my computer to rotate between Delicate Arch, Balanced Rock, and the Tetons...
