Personal:

I was born in 1979 and grew up in Mona Utah. I have a beautiful wife (Allison) and a very cute three year old boy (Jaren). We live in American Fork and I am a Health, Science, and PE teacher at Oquirrh Hills Middle School in Riverton. I coach Track and Cross Country at Riverton High.  My running often takes a back seat to my coaching.

I think Sasha and hot pink shorts are the bomb!

Go pinky!!

Early morning run.  I did the Temple / Alpine loop in the dark, but I wore a headlight this time.  I did Tempo the last 3 miles of the run at under 6 minute pace.  I was lucky to get done in time to get ready for work.  The whole run was in the dark.

(Omni- 9 miles

I needed a long run today so I went out on my own to get it done.  The weather was good at first with a few sprinkles here and there.  I ran by the hospital and Temple, up around Lone Peak high, and into Alpine.  I got a drink at the park and used the bathroom then headed up the road to Sliding Rock through all of the huge houses.  I turned around when the pavement ended at 10 miles, then started to head back.  I grabbed another drink at the park and headed toward the canyon.  When I got close to AF canyon it started to rain and hail.  I went up the big hill going into Cedar Hills and got some relief for a mile or so.  I grabbed another drink at the Cedar Hills park, and the weather got worse as I headed for PG and AF.  It started to hail pretty hard and there was no where to take shelter so I just kept going. The rain and hail pelted me for a couple of miles and I was glad to get within a mile of home, so I pushed out a good last mile so I could finish up.   I actually had a pretty good run other than the last 5 miles because of the weather, although it did seem like it took a lot longer than the time it took me.  2:25:14 for the run.
