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.

I have run every inch of paved road and parking lots in the City of Primm, Nevada.  There are a couple of dirt roads that turn out toward the desert and into the mountains, but I would have to jump over fences to access them.  I will either trespass tomorrow or get some 400's in next to I-15.

The Primm hotels are a little dicey, but the buffets are all Vega$.  I feel like its Thanksgiving with all the food I'm eating.  It's hard to pass on great food that's dirt cheap.
