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.

Group run up Big Cottonwood Canyon then back through a residential area.  I had hoped to finish up in time to make it over to James and Allie's 5K, but a couple of wrong turns added 3 miles to the run (looks like they had a great time).  Tough work out today, but no smoke in the area.
