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.

2 miles of running! I felt good - no pain, only a little weakness in the adductor and psoas. My discomfort throughout the day has decreased significantly, and I actually feel like I'm recovering from day-to-day. Great news :) Rode on the bike for 5.5 miles in the afternoon.

I took my heart rate for the first time in about a year and it was at 65 bpm...when I'm in shape it's around 50-55 bpm. I have a ways to go!

Good job. Except didn't Jake say that should be a 0 on miles? ;) (Glad you gave him crap about that one)
