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.

how's it going? It looks like things are going well for you. I am still kind of out of the running. My knee is still the problem.

I wish I could have run the Wasatch Back Relay this year. It's a fun race.

Hello Chris. I see you have turned into a biking guy. Let me know when you start swimming and I'll look for you at the tri-races. I'm going to run the Northwest relay race with Craig this year. It will be fun to see how it compares to Wasatch. Get better soon!

Yes I have turned in to a bike guy because I can't really run. As far as Tri's go, I might be doing some but I have a lot of work to do in the swimming. Good luck on the Northwest relay. I was thinking about helpin Dom with the race but I don't think I can get it off work.
