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.

Went to the track to spectate the Sugarhouse Relays. Ran a half mile prior to the race then took lots of great photos during the race. So fun! I was able to cool down for 2 miles with the crew feeling pretty good except for a little abdominal cramping.

Thanks guys! :)

Matt - So glad to see you hammering again. Any hamstring issues anymore or do you feel like it is healed?

Andrea, it seems like I'm often right on the edge with my hamstring, but currently it feels excellent (no pain). I'm trying to be diligent with preventative PT stuff, and I'm trying to be careful and gradual with training. I'm hoping it continues to feel great,, and I'm optimistic it will. Thanks for asking! Soon, you will be able to say the same thing about your injury!!
