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.

Temp work at Mt. Carmel High School.  One mile warm up and one mile cool down with 3x1000.  It's hard to believe I was doing 14 of these last summer.  I'll try to add one every week.

10 miles on the road. The canyon was closed because of flooding. The course was rolling hills.

Tennis later tonight.

Three miles with a new running group...West Coast Road Runners.  They are sponsored by the RoadRunner running store (big place).  It appears that they will have a large number of sub 3:30 marathon people.  I'm excited to train with them.  I will have to do my long runs on Sunday for a couple of months, until the group catches up.  They train for the San Diego Rock-n-Roll in June.  In a few weeks the group will begin meeting at different sites in San Diego.  It will be cool to run a different place every week.
