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 while Elizabeth watched the kids play at Sugar House Park. 7 x 200 with warm up and cool down. I did a cool down in the grass without shoes.
Morning interval work-out at East High. Warm up and cool down with 6 x 800. There was a speed walker on the track this morning. That does not look like any fun! Followed up with a core work-out I've been trying to do daily during the week.
Tempo work at Highland High with warm up and cool down. 2 x 1600. All the gates were locked, but I'm not sure why. I was able to fit in between two gates and get my morning run in. Is this trespassing?
Afternoon run up to City Creek then over to West High (they have a nice track) and through downtown back into Sugar House. The weather was cool, but I did not get wet!
