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.

| | 7 miles with Jake in Park City, 8:25 pace. We ran along the McLeod bike path then turned right onto the dirt path by Quarry Mountain. It turns out that there is a nice dirt trail system that Jake and I didn't even know about! It's a beautiful area, and I can't wait to go back and explore the whole soft surface bike path. My right adductor and groin got pretty tired around 6 miles, and I decided to walk the rest of the way back after hitting 7 miles.
The fall colors in Park City are awesome - lots of yellows and oranges on the Aspen trees. Love it.

| | 3 miles easy with Jake. I did not wear enough clothes for 40 degrees and still cold.
Not sure how this week's training is going to go...I'm heading to TN on Thursday for my brother's wedding. Between the traveling and all the wedding festivities, I need to be really careful not to overdo it. When I went home six weeks ago, I felt terrible for 5 days afterwards. I should be able to handle more now but having any type of mileage goals could just get me into trouble.

| | Sugarhouse run with Allie and Jake. I felt really good today except my right achilles hurt. It bothered me a little on yesterday's run (for the first time ever) and then this morning it was tight, sore, and twingy. Hopefully, it's just another little problem along the comeback that will go away in a couple days.
Question of the day: What do you trust more for speed/distance - Garmin or treadmill?

| | Wednesday Workout. I waited until lunchtime to make sure my achilles/calf was okay. It felt 90% during the warm-up so I think the problem was a knot I found in my soleus muscle yesterday. I jogged to the track then began 4 x (2 x 400)m with 200m b/w reps and 400m b/w sets. 80-83, 84-84, 84-85, 85-83. Although I slowed down, I was still significantly faster than my goal of 87 seconds. I am really happy because my fitness is what slowed me down today - NOT my injury. My achilles/calf got a little achy once I stopped running, but I'm not too worried. The next couple days are easy.

| | 3.2 miles before my flight to TN. Is this the first flight since surgery that won't be a total disaster? I hope so!

| | 4 hilly miles in TN. I did really well with the traveling yesterday but then spent several hours out with the wedding party last night which threw me a little over the edge. I was achy/twingy this morning. The weather here is amazing, so I couldn't resist a short run.

| | 3.7 miles before heading to wedding stuff. Felt okay, just doing enough to feel good (mentally) and not bad (injury) at the same time.
