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.

Speed work at Highland.  7 x 200 with warm up and cool down.  Tried to sign up for Hobble Creek after my morning run, but it was already closed!  It just opened up for registration today!  Stopped by Salt Lake Running and checked out their grand opening.  I won a shirt, but they raffled off a ton of shoes and even an Addidas sponsorship (includes 4 pairs of shoes).
