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.

AM - Waited until it was warmer outside (11am) to do the workout this morning. Headed to Liberty Park for mile repeats. 2 mile warm-up, then 5 x mile with 0.4 mile recovery. Miles at 5:49, 5:47, 5:46, 5:43, 5:42. Great workout for me! I've made a lot of progress in the last three weeks and I'm feeling stronger with every run.

What is in your special sauce? I swear Andrea you just have the "it" factor. You are coming back fast and strong and I predict a very fast 5K for you next Sunday! Nice job.

It's fun to see you running healthy and getting stronger. I'm looking forward to seeing what you're capable of this year. Nice work today!

So awesome Andrea! Your ability to pace yourself perfectly and always finish with a negative split is so incredibly impressive. Something I really need to work on after Boston. Great workout today. :)

That is a very solid workout! You're making really fast progress!! Nice work!
