Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

I did a short run on the canal road. It was fine running north, then we hit gale force winds (at least that's how it felt) running south. I no longer fight the wind, I just go with it. I wonder if anyone's ever done a survery to see how many days out of the year are windy in So. Jordan. It seems to me like it's always windy, though I'm sure there are probably more non-windy days than windy. What can we do? I then went to the Rec Center and did 20 minutes on the stairmaster and ran a few more laps there. Funny thing, there was no wind running in the Rec Center, so that was very enjoyable.
