Long-Term Running Goals: Just keep swimming...just keep swimming...but running. 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!

| Nightime run from my house up to the BST at Shepherd creek, north to Baer Canyon, back south on the lower dirt road, then back home. Lots of yellow eyes from deer peering back at me from the darkness. Nice and easy, decent climb. 990 vert. |

Ran from my house north to Baer Canyon, hit the BST heading south from there through Shepherd creek (down and then back up to the BST) to Farmington Canyon (down and then back up) then up to flag rock in Farmington. I stopped and the top where there was a couple that was hiking, and we chatted for quite a few minutes before I moved on out and headed down the south trail. Jun called me while I was running down the tricky section to tell me he had taken second at the Red Mountain 50K with a 4:02 time. So cool - I knew he'd kill it on that course. I then ran back on the firebreak road north until I met back up with where I had turned up to flag rock and just ran the same way back. I took a detour to Farmington pond where there was a bathroom with running water, which was great because I was just about out and it was getting HOT. From there it was really a grind as my uphill legs were pretty much gone, and I still had a couple of decent climbs left. I was tempted to just run home from Shepherd creek (missing the last big climb) but I knew that wasn't what I had set out to do, and no matter how slowly, I would just keep on truckin. Tough little course with about 4500 feet of climbing. Hot. Wore my Ultraspire Kinetic for the first time and was pretty impressed.
