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.

Half day of skiing followed by bowling up at Park City. Very fun weekend! But very unhappy hip.

4.5 miles with Jake. My psoas was acting up but we went slow and easy. I changed the way I am sleeping (from stomach to back) and it is helping.

Ran 3 miles on the treadmill at work. Yesterday I got sent home from work with a fever. No fever today and I'm feeling better, just tired.

Yesterday I started reading Anatomy for Runners: Unlocking Your Athletic Potential for Health, Speed, and Injury Prevention. I have almost decided to book a flight to Bend, OR and get the author to evaluate me.

Three miles on the treadmill, 7:40 pace. I've decided to get really good at running 3-5 milers for a while and utilize the treadmill more for gait feedback.

Chile's New Food Labeling Rules - the US needs to do this!

"The rules establish nutrition standards for foods.  Products that exceed the standards will have to say high in sugar, salt, or fat in brightly colored labels (red, green, blue) on the front of the packages."

AM - Snow-slush run around the neighborhoods. Screw shoes would've been nice this morning.

PM - 4 miles with Jake in the afternoon. It was beautiful running with the sun out and all the new fallen snow - feels like the holidays!
