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 - 4th Annual Work triathlon - 3rd place overall. 

2 mile Run: 13:42
1 mile Elliptical: 6:56
4 miles Bike: 10:03

I have not worked out this hard in a LONG time! It was quite a shock to the system...I was happy to run around 6:50 pace (a full minute faster than I've run for a year!). The elliptical was definitely my forte - all that skinning up mountains helped me there. Not surprisingly, I was struggling by the end of the bike. I finished with a beet red face and dripping sweat. I really want to win this triathlon next year - let's hope I'm healthy and can make it happen.

PM - Skinned 2000ft with Jake.

AM - 6.3 miles in Millcreek with Jake before he left for Vienna, 8:00 pace. Longest run in a really long time, but it felt pretty good. I'm not quite ready for running this far though...
