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.

It's my 26th birthday today! :)

AM - Met Amiee and walked for two loops around Liberty Park then ran for two loops. All my injury annoyances subsided during the walk so I felt great running. What a great present. Hope it lasts!! 

Then we met up with Fritz, Adam C, Allie, James, Devra, Jake, and David for brunch at Ruth's. I made sure to wear my brand new sweater. Can anyone guess who made this for me?!?

And for those guessing, it was NOT me that made this sweater... although I really wish I could take the credit for such a creation!

OMG that is so ugly.

my guess is you got that from the tie-dye guy at liberty park.

happy birthday.

That sweater is pimp. And my guess is Allie-gator!

Happy belated 26th! Good to hear you got your run in. Something special about running on your birthday. Could have made it 2.6 on your 26th?
