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.

4 miles, 8:22 pace! I felt a little off it terms of what muscles were supposed to be firing but no pain so I kept going. It is so nice to go out for a 30+ min run - I hope I can do this every day soon!

This is great! You will be cruising like nobody's business by this fall! You have showed a really inspiring amount of perseverance and patience with this injury and surgery, I am stoked for the day it all pays off and you start kicking some tail!
