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!

Local bike path right next to the hotel in Cheyenne - followed by a dip in the pool of course.

PM - 2.5 "with" Andrea (on parallel treadmills).  Mixed it up a little and threw some fast segments in.

Still in Cheyenne.  Started out on the treadmill, got bored, then did the last bit out on the bike trail.  I don't know if it was the heat or the transition to a not-moving surface that made my legs go all wobbly outside.  In the future I think I'll just pick one and stick to it.
