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.

Not 100% with a cold moving through the family, but still thought I could PR the course. First 5K on target (18:16) but struggled the second half (18:43), but still moved up two spots. Fell short of my course PR (36:41).
