Personal:

I'm 28 years old, originally from new england and now living in Evanston, Wyoming.  Ran competitively up through college and then did nothing for about 6 years.  Didn't like what I saw in some of my wedding/honeymoon pictures (of myself at least :) ) and make a commitment to start running regularly again just over a year ago.  It's been a tough road - especially making the jump from sea level to ~7000 ft, but I'm looking forward to see how much of my college speed/endurance I can regain!

Nice trail run up at Solitude.  This is a weekly trail series starting at Corner Canyon in April and then moving to the ski resorts during the summer.  Breathtaking course - in every possible sense of the word.  I promise I worked very hard for that 45 minutes.   I went to a couple of these races last year, but this was my first of the season.  These guys do a great job - decent turnouts, shoe demos, and pretty sweet post-race raffle.   I plan on doing as many of these as fits into my schedule through the rest of the summer.  Snowbird next week! 

You know any race where chairlifts are present is bound to be a little interesting....
