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.

Sugar House park loop.  I feel like my back is about at 75%.  I should be fine (I hope) to run 25 miles at the St. George Expedition race on Saturday.

5 x 800 at East High.  Back continues to improve.  St. George should be a challenge.

Relay race in St. George.  I ran on a 2-man team with Craig Green.  There were only three 2-man teams, four solos and about forty 5-member teams.  Great weather and tough course (you run up Snow Canyon), but we were happy with finishing 3rd overall in the entire field.  This is much easier than the overnight relays.  We started at 8 AM and were driving home by 2 PM.

Lots of fun teams and typical well organized St. George event.  Several other Runagade members were racing and all did awesome.
