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.

Hi Tara. The back is feeling good, but the legs need some training!

That's the thing, even when the back was injured its the legs that hurt right? Stands to reason that its the legs that need to come back post-surgery. Keep up it Mark!
