Perhaps the skinniest healthy runner you will meet.  I am 6'-1" and 123lbs.  It doesn't matter if I run or not it is just how I am built. 

I am 38, married (Aubrey) and have two boys Steffin (9) & Alex (6)

7:30 am - 16.70 miles - A much more fantastic run with Sasha than two weeks ago (I have been more consistent with my training the last two weeks).  Dispite having a rather upset 2nd toe - and it being 18 deg to start - this run went rather well.  We started off the run with a 4+ mile jog up Provo Canyon and then started our tempo run (Sasha does 6 continuous - I do 4 total 1.5 - 0.25 rest - 1.0 - 0.25 rest - 1.5).  The first 1.5 went 83.62, 85.00, 83.22, 84.80, 85.45, 84.40 for a total of 8:26.29 and an average mile pace of 5:37.  The 1.0 (uphill and into a strong wind) went 97.14, 94.32, 97.98 and 98.15 for total of 6:27.35.  The second 1.5 went 84.24, 87.70, 87.83, 87.37, 87.38, and 87.67 for a total of 8:42.11 and an average mile pace of 5:48.  We jogged back to Sasha's house and did 6 more miles with the kids (one of which was at 6:52 pace with Benjamin).  As per usual this was done with zero fuel or hydration.  As a side note I do believe I will be losing a toe nail.
