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.

Ran 4 miles this evening - felt pretty good. I warmed up over the first mile, then slowly increased my pace. I ran the third mile in 6:48, then walked for about 2 minutes and resumed my run. Total time was 30:10. Will take tomorrow off and then run on Wed.

Decided I couldn't wait until Wednesday to run again, and ran 3 miles on the treadmill. Warmed up for the first 1/2 mile at 8:30 pace, then slowly increased every 1/2 mile until I was at 6:30 pace. Ran this for a mile, then slowed back down. Total time was 22:10. The run felt good. I also feel like adding these tempo sessions in the middle of my runs will help my cardio fitness as well as train my legs to run faster.

biked about 10 miles this morning - felt good. My hip has started to hurt again with impact activities, so I am going to go see an orthopedic surgeon to figure out what is going on. In the meantime, I think that I will be able to continue biking - this didn't hurt at all.
