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.

Was your new profile picture actually taken during a 5k? Your facial expression looks like you're waiting in line at the grocery store.

The great thing about having a camera with a fast shutter speed is that you can take lots of pics and choose the 1-2 that don't make you look like you're dying. This pic is a better representation of how I was feeling - http://goo.gl/drj77x

Ok, that's more like it.

Maybe I'll just come to test out your picture theory! I hope you wear a costume.

It's a "spooky" 5K. I saw the sign.

Also, Wheeler Farm probably had the most accurate 5K course in Utah. They even have wooden kilometer markers. I don't remember those from last year.

I had the same thought about LetsRun Boards! I like Letsrun for racing news and interviews and predictions and stuff like that, but the message boards have a lot of crude stuff that you have to wade through to find good threads.
