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.

Uphill both ways in the snow!  Well, it felt like it.  House to Huntsman Cancer center then back.

Nice warm run in Paso Robles, CA.  The hotel suggest I run on the shoulder of Hwy.43 West, but the road was busy, so I ventured off some rural side streets.  I headed north on Arbor then made a west turn on Live Oak.  The road turned to gravel with rolling hills and took me down large tracts of land with rows of grapes.  The road ended at L'Adventure Winery.  I did not see a car the entire four mile stretch.  This was a really cool run.  It made me miss California.

Long drive from Paso Robles up to Fairfield today.  Did a late run around the Green Valley area in some very nice neighborhoods.  Spring is in full swing in California.
