Personal:

Born 1972 in north central Wisconsin

Married for 11 yrs to very supportive non-running wife. Two children : Fiona, 6 (in picture) and Elliott (2 yrs)

Co-Race Director of Delano Park 12 Hour Run (www.delano12.com). President of River City Runners (www.rivercityrunners.org)

3 cats and 1 dog (chocolate lab)

In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner. I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled. The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon. 6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

Ran trails at work. Quad is very tight. Only can feel it when I really extend my leg. Felt good otherwise. Finished with a 7:52 mile.

Still pondering the Bartlett Park 50k.

another good lunch run.

Started some weight training to beef up my quads.

Prettty light so far. Didn't want to push it with my quad still a little injured.

Three sets of 10. Leg extensions - 50 lbs., Seated leg press - 90 lbs. I may add in curls. Weight training is too boring to do anything else.

Ran with Wayne over to Wet Dog. Nice easy. Fun run.

Ankle started to hurt toward the end. I need to wrap it still for longer runs.
