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.

Ran the Greek Festival 5K this morning.  The course  is very similar to the Race for the Cure course at Gateway in Salt Lake.  Not my best time, but I had a good 2 miles.  I believe the altitude got to me the last mile where a slowed down considerably.  After the race, I drove up to the Canyons to run with a friend of mine doing the Mid-Mountain marathon.
