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 - I slept until 7am so I wouldn't be tempted to do any running or elliptical. Just yoga for 15 minutes. 

Just wanted to get the word out - Jake and I created a USATF - Utah Facebook page  to get more visibility to the organization and try to get the Long Distance Racing Circuit to become a big deal in Utah. Please like our page if you are interested - the more visibility, the more likely that races will be willing to join the Circuit next year! :)

PM - Weight training for 25 minutes. Then 10 x 10s hill surges, then 5 x 10s flat surges.

Are you sure you want slow-bies like me to like the page? I'm not really in your running league, but I'm always up for a good FB page! :)

The circuit isn't just for the top couple runners in the state (in fact, when that happens, it sort of defeats the overall purpose)... there are actually lots of age-group awards, etc. It seems like the overall participation has dropped in the last couple years, so hopefully we can reverse that trend... get the overall numbers back up and make it a lot of fun to be a part of. Join the page! :-)

I don't have a facebook account. Can I still see the page?
