| 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.

| Jogged up past the zoo and did 6 hill repeats up Crestview. I could tell it had been a while since I'd done hills or speed, but it felt good to shake the legs out a little. The weather could not have been more beautiful, and the view from Donner Park makes it a great place for hill work. After my reps were done, I warmed down by running up to Augusta, over to St. Mary's, down to Foothill and home. | |

I missed my Wednesday run because I stayed up too late on Tuesday watching the Boston Marathon coverage on Universal and couldn't get up at 5:15. Brooke was leaving at 6:00, so I was hoping to run that night. Her family came in town, though, so we ended up at my mother-in-law's house and it was a little too late by the time I made it home to get my run in. I need to get back on a more predictable schedule.
This morning I worked in a little bit of tempo effort. The pace wasn't too hot (between 5:30 and 6:30), but it was good to add some effort and turnover in. It was a classic April morning out there, with light rain that had changed to snow by the time I finished the run. | |

It's been a long time since I got as wet on a run as I did this morning, but the rain has turned everything so green and beautiful that it's hard to complain. I headed down to Guardsman and across the U campus, through lower Federal Heights and up to Popperton, then came back along the golf course road. I threw a little tempo into the final mile, but otherwise took it easy. | |

| It was a crisp but beautiful out this morning. I headed up to Wasatch, across Parley's on the trail, and down to Millstream and back for an even 10. I kept the pace easy on the way out and started to pick it up a little on the way back. Final 3 were at roughly MP effort (just over 170 bpm), with final mile of 5:50. I wrapped up a This American Life on the way out, then turned on a Lionel Richie playlist on the way back. About 10 seconds into You Are the Sun, You Are the Rain, I was back in the 80s on a Lake Powell trip with two other families in our neighborhood, the Caltons and the Irions, lounging on the houseboat while they played Lionel's newest release over the stereo system. Not a bad way to tick off miles on a Saturday morning. | |
