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

Easy effort on the H-rock loop (I extended the route by crossing over to Wasatch at the bottom of Donner Park, then following the golf course to 1300 South, then back home, which took it to exactly 7 miles).  Since I have a hard day tomorrow, I took it especially easy today, particularly on the 21st South hill (I walked a couple of times).  Since I forgot to use my inhaler before the run, it was probably good that I didn't extend myself much (I was wheezing anyway, and that continued for an hour or so after I finished the run).  Props to the dog for dragging me up 21st (she spotted a couple of rabbits and provided a very useful surge or two).
