| 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.

| I registered for the SG lottery yesterday, so I figured I should start getting out the door as close to 5-6 days per week as possible until my official training plan starts up in a few weeks. I had heard some rain during the night, so I wore my rain gear but couldn't find gloves quickly enough. Maja usually refuses to run if it's raining, but although the ground was wet when we left, it wasn't raining at all, so she joined me enthusiastically. Her enthusiasm waned, however, when our pleasant morning turned into a driving hail storm, which turned into a pretty decent snow storm. She kept looking up at me as if to ask, "What the $%@# are we doing our here?" My hands were a little frozen by the time we made it home, but by then the storm had mostly died down. What a lovely April it's been. |

| No hail or snow this morning, so that was a bonus. Temperature was chilly, but the sun was bright and the sky was clear. Pace was easy, but it must have been a little faster than usual, because Maja was dragging a bit after 2 miles. The focus now is just getting back to running every day. |

| Maja was dragging this morning, so I shortened my originally planned loop and dropped her off, then did a quick loop down to Guardsman and around 500 South to Foothill. It felt good to open it up for a mile or so, but it was also clear that my fitness stinks.

| Woke up to a fresh couple of inches on the grass. Unbelievable. I had to sneak in a quick 8 before heading up to Centerville for Jacob's soccer game. It was chilly but gorgeous, and Maja was back to her normal self. I headed across the U campus, then ran down 2nd Ave to Virginia Street, up to Popperton (about died running up the hill--I am seriously out of shape), then turned around and looped up to the U of U Hospital and through Fort Douglas and Research Park and home. |
