Personal:

I'm a happily married guy with a 5 year old son. I started running on February 1st, 2010 with the goal of completing a triathlon (my one and only "official" race prior to that was the "Centerville half mile fun run" when I was about 8) In that following year I lost nearly 50 lbs, completed the triathlon, numerous 5Ks, 10Ks, bike races, and really started to lean towards running over the other two (though I still cross train with both).

I grew up hiking and riding horses in the mountains, so I've been drawn to take my running to the trails - and haven't looked back! I run them every chance I get, which is about 90% of the time!

Very casual morning run up Farmington Canyon with Aaron and brother in law. The air was thick and nasty with the inversion and some morning fog. Once we got up above it though, it was a beautiful, cloudless day. Lots of snowmobilers, but they've got the road packed down quite nicely. It was nice to see the sun.

Yeah, this would be a good long run option too.
