| Location: Salt Lake City,UT,USA Member Since: May 06, 2006 Gender: Male Goal Type: Local Elite Running Accomplishments: Won Park City Marathon (tiny field, slow course, no purse) and Utah Grand Slam in 2006
Marathon: 2:37:04 (St. George 2009) Short-Term Running Goals: Train for as solid a race in Boston 2011 as my schedule will allow. Accept the fact that there isn't room in my life to train for a breakthrough performance and do the best I can under the circumstances.
Long-Term Running Goals: Lose the all-or-nothing mentality and
start using running as an outlet instead of an additional source of
stress. Personal: I'm married with 4 kids (2 boys, 2 girls) and live in Salt Lake City, where I work as a real estate attorney.
Let me have men about me that are fat,
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep a-nights.
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look,
He thinks too much; such men are dangerous.
"Julius Caesar," Act I, scene 2, 190-95 Favorite Blogs: |

| Set PR (2:48:11) at Ogden to finish 7th, beating previous best of 2:53:25. Stayed with group of 5 for first 5 miles or so (on initial descent), but left them when pace dropped off of 6:30. Ran alone from mile 6 on. 1/2 packet Enervitene (w/H2O) around 1:00, 1:35, 2:00, 2:30; Powerade at every other aid station. Under 6:00 at 14, 18, 23. Blistered on ball of left foot. Doc in medical tent said midsole had broken down and that 300 was too much mileage on a shoe to use in a downhill marathon. | |
