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.

Total Distance

9.20

AM - 9.2 miles with Devra in the Sandy area 7:35 pace. Moderately hilly run and slippery! Felt better today so I'm glad I took it easy yesterday.

Jake and I wrote a book review of Which Comes First - Cardio or Weights? I think that most people on the blog would really like the book; it has great information and I learned a lot.

Nice run, and nice review. Now I really want to read this book!

Its probably the best $10 I've spent on a book in who knows how long. Totally worth picking up, Carina!
