Personal: I was married in 1997 to my beautiful wife Lybi (confessions of a piano teacher on the blog), and we have 3 wonderful boys who are just as active as I was when I was little (he he). I grew up in southeastern Michigan, and my family became members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints when I was 6. I attended BYU, and served a mission in Berlin, Germany. After graduating from BYU with a degree in Health and Human Performance (pre-physical therapy), I promptly changed careers and started working with computers (although no programming for me). We have moved across the country several times, and currently live in Mesa, AZ. I work in computer security for a major nationwide homebuilder. Favorite Blogs: |

| It was hot this morning - already about 80 degrees when I got up to run at 4:40 am. I tried to just take it easy, which for me meant I was able to keep my pace around 8:00/mile. Total time was 40:08 for an average pace of about 8:02/mile. Even though I was sweating a lot, the run felt good. I mapped out a 6-miler over the weekend, and am planning on running it tomorrow. |

| Ran my 6 mile loop today, felt sluggish starting out, about 3 miles in, I wasn't feeling so good due to the heat - about 83 degrees this morning at 4:40 am. However, I found my pace quickly, and the last 3 miles actually went by pretty quickly. Total time was 49:50 for an average pace of 8:18/mile. |

| Didn't get very much sleep last night, so I decided to do a shorter run today and will attempt to make it up on Friday. Wore my heart rate monitor for the first time in months and was very encouraged. Even thought it was kind of windy, My heart rate stayed below 160 for most of the run, which for me is very good. Total time was 28:41, with an average HR of 160, for an average pace of 8:11/mile. I felt very good about this run, especially since I only got about 5 1/2 hours of sleep last night. I will make a concerted attempt to get a full 8 hours tonight and will plan on either 5 or 6 miles tomorrow. |

| Ate a Clif Shot this morning before my run, seemed to help with my energy. To break up the monotony, I ran the third mile in about 7:10. Total time was 38:44, for an average pace of 7:44/mile. I will throw in another 5 or 6-miler tomorrow, and will have to see what I can do on Saturday, as we are going on vacation and will be traveling. |
