Personal:

I'm 28 years old, originally from new england and now living in Evanston, Wyoming.  Ran competitively up through college and then did nothing for about 6 years.  Didn't like what I saw in some of my wedding/honeymoon pictures (of myself at least :) ) and make a commitment to start running regularly again just over a year ago.  It's been a tough road - especially making the jump from sea level to ~7000 ft, but I'm looking forward to see how much of my college speed/endurance I can regain!

40 minutes easy peasy whilst watching the Bruins lay some smack down.

Some interesting thoughts on Galen Rupp and his lastest trend of breaking American records...

Mostly I just wonder what would possess somebody to do 5x1 mile immediately after one of said records.

Ran with my friend Nicole on the second part of her long run down in Ogden.  Occasional snow flurries, but overall a pretty nice day.
