Personal:

Married to Elizabeth (she got me running in 2003). We have three boys, Lucas (12) , Sam (8) and Ollie (5).

Many years ago, I read that the AVERAGE male is capable of a 2:40 marathon.  I decided to test that theory.  I began running in 2003 with Top of Utah as my first marathon (4:24).  I need 3 more minutes.

Quick run around Liberty early this morning before the heat hits.  Legs feel pretty good after the long run yesterday, so it was nice to stretch them out.

Run from house up to Wasatch Drive then over to Hogle Zoo, through Research Park, University of Utah, Federal Heights and into the Avenues before heading home.  It was a hot, humid run early this morning.

Nice morning run down to Sugar House then up to Tanner Park and through "Dog" Canyon up to Wasatch then back down 1300 South to the house.  There is a water fountain as you come out on to Foothill/Wasatch that is in a perfect location.  Very similar to the water fountain close to the Avenues in the Federal Heights area.  Both water fountains are in the middle of nowhere and must be maintained and paid for by the local property owners...thank you!

Tempo work at East High this morning.  3 x 1600 with warm up and cool down.  This morning had to be the hottest morning yet for 2010.  The family and I will be heading to the South later this week, so I better enjoy the "dry heat" while I can!

Hot, humid run in Dawsonville, Georgia.  Did 4 miles on the track before running the cross country couse at the high school.  On the last lap, I got stung by a hornet!  It did make me run a little faster.
