Move into endurance mountain biking and trail triathlons (xterra, etc) 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running. Move into triathlons and get stronger. Keep succeeding at half marathons and the occasional marathon.

Personal:

I know Sasha from the CS program at BYU. We both graduated in 1997. He probably doesn't remember me, because he was definitely more vocal in class and among the students than I was.

Married to Teresa with 3 kids: Anders (4), Kristian (9), and Zoe (12).

Fluent in Danish, but there is obviously very little need for that.

Easy miles at Wheeler Farm with Andrea and Johnny. I was sick the day before, but felt ok this morning.

Awesome workout on the artificial turf, as always. Andrea, Stevie, Natalie and I did our workout together. We tried some plyometrics after the intervals on the artificial turf, then did our cooldown mile barefoot on the turf. I did all my intervals on the turf as well, in my Vibram 5 Fingers. Felt really good after.

Hit the trail up on the Bonneville Shoreline. It was very nice. The ankles are feeling good. I wasn't running too fast, but my strength felt like it was all there. It's a tough climb up to the shoreline trail.

AM: 4.5 miles to the Trax station

PM: 4.5 miles home. I saw a friend of mine in the neighborhood and he raced me in his car the last .25 miles. Things felt ok. I'm going to take off tomorrow in preparation for a long run on Saturday.
