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.

Sugar House park loop before the sidewalks freeze!  I believe I run best in 29-34 degree weather--now to find a marathon in that temperature zone.

Tried to run with the group this morning, but my back was really hurting.  Earlier in the week, I played football with the kids on my knees...big mistake!  I'll take a few days off and go see my quack.
