Running Accomplishments:

Quantcast

 I ran for Utah State University for a few years from 1999-2002. I got a little burned out and took a break from running. Now 10 years later, I feel that there is still faster running left to accomplish. I started running again in mid-summer of 2012. I had a short spurt in 2009, but work got in the way.

2:45:24 for The Boston Marathon​ today. A 26 second personal best.  I was hoping for much more. That said, I am very happy with the day and my time  The course was very hard today. There was a headwind the whole race that got stronger the further down the course I went, and it rained half the race. I was very blessed today. It is a miracle that I did this well with being so sick a few days ago and in those conditions. 

The experience of running Boston was indescribable. I don't know what else to say about that other than I will remember it for a lifetime.
