Personal:
I have five brothers and five sisters,
all younger. I'm currently a PhD Student in the CSEM (computational science) program at UT Austin. Married, no kids (yet). I've been dealing with some issues in running the last few years, and am trying to get back into top shape.
My last mile was in 5:53, a PR. I have been trying to break six for a year. My quarter splits were 84,87,98, and 84. My 100 meter splits were 18, 22, 22, 22, 22, 21, 22, 28, 24, 23, 23, 22, 21, 21, and 20.
