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

5.20

Continued the trend of my comfort route Old Stage Rd and back. It is quite hilly (as is everything here in Knoxville) but an old favorite from the high school days. Averaged 7:05 pace for 5.2 miles with the last mile at 6:15 pace. I need to run 4.3 miles the next two days to hit 1000 miles for the year - not impressive mileage but still worth something!

Headed back to SLC tonight...it's going to be rough getting back into the work routine tomorrow.

Work "routine" for one day, then two more days off :-)

Good run. Fast!

Ha! Sounds like a tough routine! Nice miles lately :)

That's sweet you're going to hit a grand for the year (given the months of recovery). Great finish today!

Good run, Andrea. I like the injections of speed the last few days.

4 digits with surgery and ending at your goal (5kish pace) is an impressive feat!
