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.

Personal:

I am married and have a 5 year old little boy and a 2 year old little girl. I graduated from USU in aviation and worked as a pilot for many years. After subsequential furloughs and lay-offs due to the economy, I decided to go back to school. I then graduated from the nursing program at Boise State University. I now fly the University of Utah AirMed (Lifeflight) airplane base in Rock Springs WY.

AM 8 x 800 ran all of them between 2:36 - 2:38. I could have gone faster but I was still tired from the long run on Sat.

PM 4 mile MP run. The idea here was to do them on tired legs to simulate the later part of the race.

Very nice run today along the greenbelt in cool temperatures. I am so happy with this workout. During this long run today I did 13.1 miles at MP 6:10 AP. I did this workout 2 weeks ago with 12 miles @ MP while averaging 6:07 but I felt so much better today. It seamed a lot easier today and I felt in control and relaxed. I also felt like I could have done 1-2 more miles at that pace but stopped so that I am abe to recover quicker. Other things going for me today with this run was I did it solo and I didn't take any gel, and it was non-aided with some rolling hills. I did have to take a potty break but I was able to hold it off until close to the end and after the MP miles. AP 6:29
