Quality for the Olympic Trials in the marathon 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.

| | 2.5 mile run around Sugarhouse Park with Jake and Kevin. My longest (and fastest) run post-surgery. I felt almost like a runner again! I had a little abdominal cramping again, but I'm hoping it will work itself out with time. Stoke is back! My last three weeks - 1 mile, 5 miles, 9 miles. Maybe 13 this next week?! |

| | 2 mile run with a short walk between miles. I ran this morning against my best judgement and the adductor and obliques were definitely weak/tired from the last two days. No damage done, but I have to make myself take tomorrow off (at least in the morning). |

| | 2.5 miles around the block with Jake, 8:50 pace. A few little aches and pains that would come and go, but overall felt good. So glad this is my last day of work this week! :) Bring on the 4th festivities! |

| | Went to the Murray 5K with Jake. Ended up with 3 miles broken up across about 5 different runs. Ran 2 x 1/2 mile at about 6:45 pace. Everything felt great except for slight abdominal cramping again. We are on our way north towards cooler temps now... I only brought red/white/blue clothes for the rest of the week! Have a great 4th! |

| | NOTHING. Super lazy day hanging around Hebgen Lake, MT. Felt pretty achy from yesterday's run and travel. Not a bad place to be! |

Sawtelle Stampede 5K (3.107 Miles) 00:24:47, Place overall: 5 | |
Joined in on the VDK family fun and ran the Sawtelle Stampede 5K in Island Park, ID. This was my farthest run to date post-surgery, and I had to be careful to NOT get in the competitive spirit for this race. Amiee and I ran together for the entire race and came in right at 8 min/mile. I felt great until about 2.5 miles, then I could feel the groin area (not bad though). Amiee saved me from potentially destroying myself by running too hard and then being in pain the rest of the day. I loved this event - lots of patriotism and festiveness :)
