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!

Farmington Canyon with the Davis County crew, which today consisted of Aaron, Steve, Phil Lowry and myself, with Twinkies having started up earlier. It was snowing, but really wasn't too bad, though the ground conditions weren't the best. I'd be just fine if the snow would melt and give us a little dirt.

I intended to join the crew but didn't get out of bed until after 6. Maybe Thursday.

Good to see you this morning. Sorry I didn't run with you guys. Starting at 5:30 doesn't give me enough time to get the full run in and make it to work.

DEFINITELY ready for dirt, sun, and less equipment!

Mr. K - One of these days! :) 10 on the TM though aint too shabby! You probably got done about the same time as us. Ha.

-Twinkies, always a pleasure.

-Yes, and by less equipment you mean shorts and shoes...ok maybe a hat and sunglasses.

I told Steve I would be there, but I was awake and wandering around at 2 AM.
