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.

Hill work-out in the canyon. It was supposed to be an easy run, but I found a few trails I'd never run on. One peak had an incredible view. I tried to work my way back down to the main trail, but I ended up in a flooded creek bed. I had to double back, so the pace was slow.
Marine layer still over the canyon in the late afternoon. It made for a nice cool run. There was a stiff breeze from the ocean for the entire run...perfect for running.
13-miler a little short. Ran in Rancho Santa Fe then west toward the ocean and south of Del Mar. Nice run with a good mixture of road, trails, sand and hills.
