Personal:

I have five cute kids. And I have some rockin short green racing shorts- I wear them mainly because it embarrasses my wife so much. I like ultimate frisbee, trail running, reading, and cheering for the Denver Broncos! And I have the absolute best wife in the world. And I used to run for the now-disbanded national Team Pearl Izumi- Ultra!

Definitely excited for UROC in 6 weeks. They continue to add more elite runners- the most recent is Ian Sharman. Looks like it will be a fun race. They even put a page with all 26 of the elite runners (so far) on it, including me. Link here. If anyone else is interested, I encourage you to throw your name in the pot.

PM- picked up Barry right after work and drove straight to the wonderfully-fandibulous Dupont State Forest trails, where we spent the next 2 hrs 54 min hours sweating our way along 18 miles of beautifully-runnable singletrack with 2600 ft gain. Saw 2 people the whole time. What a great run. Even had to do the last 45 min in the dark. The downside is I didn't get home until 11 pm, so I never saw my daughters all day. Last time I was at Dupont, I ran 20 miles in 2:47. Today, 18 miles in 2:54. The difference? It was about 40-50 deg warmer today. If you don't think that matters, let me show you my backpack from today, absolutely soaked through with my sweat.

95 miles Mon-Fri this week. Sounds like a good training week to me.

That's a pretty cool website. It makes you look all famous and everything. :)

Nice website. I've actually heard of about everyone. Scott Gall went to the college in my home town (Wabash College), and he was quite the stud when I was in high school. I ran with his former teammate when I was back in Indiana, and we were talking about him...

Have fun out there with everyone.
