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.

AM: 6.0 miles.  Early morning run from the hotel to Seaworld in Orlando.  They had the gate open at Seaworld for employees and the sidewalk I was running on continued that way, so I turned in and got a good 1/2 mile in before exiting back toward the hotel.  Now, off to a trade show to stand for 8 hours!

AM: 6.0 miles.  Another early morning run before the second day of a four day trade show.  I headed north this morning to Universal Studios for a nice run.  I have now run in Orlando for 3 days and there are 4 other early morning runners that I already recognize on the roads...we are a committed bunch.

AM: 6.2 miles.  Morning run around Orlando.  I've given up on getting any PM runs in.  The trade show ends at 5, then everyone meets at the bar at 6 and finally a 3 hour dinner.  Makes for a very long night with no time to run.
