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

Our July 4th was jam-packed and I didn't get to bed until 12:30. I woke up feeling like I'd been run over by a truck, so I skipped today's workout and went to bed early in hopes of being able to do my speed work tomorrow.

Easy 8 at Bear Lake. I actually felt like crap for the first 4 but worked out whatever was slowing me down and finished pretty strong.

Still at Bear Lake. I ran to the north shore and along the flat road to the turnaround point, then headed back. At the 11-mile marker, I picked up the pace and finished with a 5:54.
