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.

out for a nice easy Sunday jog with Elliott.

Almost 2 miles in, my left calf has a sharp pain which won't go away.  I stretched and walked some and tried it again.  Runnable but it hurts.  Very similar to the calf injury in May except its the other leg.  Just a little higher this time.  Back in May, I ran on it again and then again before I took a few days off.   I'm going to take the first part of the week off an let it heal.

 Weird injury.  It didn't hurt at all yesterday during the race  or at any time leading up to my run.    It has to be due to the race and but its a weird delay.  Its not soreness like DOMS, its a strain.

 I'm breaking out the calf sleeves again.

Two trail runs while at Desoto State Park.  Second one with Jon E.  Nice trails especially the mtn bike trails.  Felt good.
