Personal:
Married to Elizabeth (she got me running in 2003). We have three boys, Lucas (12) , Sam (8) and Ollie (5).
Many years ago, I read that the AVERAGE male is capable of a 2:40 marathon. I decided to test that theory. I began running in 2003 with Top of Utah as my first marathon (4:24). I need 3 more minutes.

I randomly clicked on one of the most recent entry links, which brought me here--- to be greeted by the picture at left.
It is a great picture. I'm guessing you are the runner on the right. I'm thinking you would have gone sub-3 if you hadn't been carrying the banner above your head for the whole 26.2 at Tucson.... Looking at some of your post I see that you are a bit faster than me. I would be the runner behind you in this picture. Hmmm... this means that if my comment has irritated you I won't be able to out run you, which is normally my only line of defense after sticking my foot in my mouth. I guess I'd better hope you have a good sense of humor and realize I am joking. But I'm thinking anyone with that blog picture must have a sense of humor.
Excellent training strategy! This explains why you finished ahead of me at Wheeler Farm and St. George.
