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.

Have not been good about updating the blog lately...gotta get back into it!

AM - Strength training for 40 minutes.

PM - 4 miles with Jake at 8:30 pace.

Plan for the next few months (while it's so cold and smoggy) is to split exercise between skinning/skiing and running. They are both great workouts and I think this will get me in very good shape by the summer. It worked really well in 2011 :-)

PM - Skinned two laps up Great Western lift (3500 ft). I was pretty tired on the second lap - last two weeks of activity has caught up to me. But I can tell that I'm getting in better shape!
