Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Ran the Provo City 5k today.  My hamstings/glutes were pretty sore and I just didn't have gas in the tank to make it a good time.  Had a blow up about 1.5 miles in which I think some tapering would have solved.  Just gotta keep at it..I'm confident better results will happen later this year.

Some friends and I are gonna "run"(more like hike with some jogging) R2R2R at the Grand Canyon in a couple weeks.  Today we decided to run from the Terrace Hills trailhead to the top of Black Mountain and back twice.  It was more like fast hiking with some jogging in the middle, but was still a pretty good workout overall....and the views are spectacular!  Counting the miles easy running miles due to avg HR being 130.

5,200 vert ft.

All I did was walk all week.  Partiallly due to sore quads Mon - Wed and then work was just busy.  This may actually be the best for my legs considering I'll be on them for 12+ hourse this Friday.  Can't wait to take in the scenerey!

R2R2R in the Grand Canyon in 16 hours.  It was more of a run/hike, but there's no way to acctually run the whole thing.  South Kaibab trail is 8 miles and climbs 4,800 feet!  Super awesome experience that I would highly recommend.
