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.

| | AM - Tempo loop run, 3.8 miles. Averaged under 8 min pace! Heading to TN today...going to take some ibuprofen for the flight in an attempt not to undo the progress I've made in the last couple of weeks (traveling is really bad for this injury). Fingers crossed for no delays, cancellations, etc. Hopefully a week of sea level will be just what I need to put this injury to rest! |

AM - 2.8 miles in the TN pouring rain. Kinda fun actually! Slow going, 2.8 miles in 25 minutes. My goal this week is 20-25 miles - I won't have access to an Alter-G so I'm just going to do what I can handle outside this week. Merry Christmas Eve! Going to me grandparents for some good 'ol southern cooking.

AM - Midday Christmas run, 4 miles and felt awesome. Averaged 7:30 pace with no pain! I still don't feel smooth when I'm running, but it's getting better. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!! :)
My parents, me, brother and his girlfriend. My bro and I don't look much alike!

| | AM - Another 4 miles today in the rain, 7:30 pace. Felt good again! And it looks like I might see the sun for the first time in days.
Any thoughts about how I should build my mileage up in the next couple months? Days off, mileage totals, etc? Jake and I have an idea but it would be good to get other input as well. Neither of us has had such a terrible injury before.

| | AM - 2.5 miles, 8 min pace. Woke up with injury annoyances - hip, glute, and hamstring. Did a ton of PT work to try to get it under control and then headed out for a 20 min run. I felt okay running but afterwards not so great. That lower right abdominal pain that hurts to touch (I thought was a hernia) came back after the run...I hope all this is just a sign that I need an easy day. Lots of icing, heating, and laying around planned for today. Thanks for all the input on training from everyone yesterday. Great thoughts...based on how easy it is for this injury to flare up, I need to go completely by feel for a while longer and always stop running before anything acts up. I'm really enjoying being able to run again and not taking any mile for granted :)

| | AM - 4 miles, kept it easy at just under 8 min pace. All that laying around yesterday must have helped because I woke up feeling good this morning. It's a good thing because I have eaten way too much food the last few days and needed to run off some calories!

| | AM - 4 miles around the neighborhood. There's only a half mile stretch that is even close to flat so I've been going back and forth on it every day. Ran the last two in 7:10, 7:07 - I hope I don't regret that later but it felt so good to run a little faster.
