Personal:

I've been running for most of my life. I ran track in college and got into long distance running a few years ago. I did my first marathon at L.A. in 2006.

I work full time as a race director for the Ragnar Relay team. We put on the Wasatch Back Relay, along with 3 other races each year in Minnesota, Washington, and Arizona. It's a challenging job- especially in the summer when so much travel is required.

Craig, my long-time training partner, has been trying to get me to join this site for a while. He keeps talking about Sasha, the "running prophet". So here I am.

I'm married (Trevor) and have a 3 year old boy (Jackson).

This was a fun little run around Murray Park and the surrounding areas. I couldn't find my running friends at first, so I called Craig and asked where they were at. He was clueless, but we ended up finding each other after 10-15 minutes.

We took a nice little stroll around the park and neighborhoods. The group consisted of me, Craig, Andrea, Johnny, Murphy (the dog), and Traci. Craig, Andrea, and Johnny got on the usual UFC topic, which totally bores me. All that talk about "submissions" and stuff really gets to me after a while. Irritating.

We stopped at a nice little smoothie shop and got samples. Yummy!

We had a nice little chat afterwards about our upcoming races. I plan on doing the Moab 1/2 Marathon, so we'll get a team together and register. My goal this next year is to qualify for Boston in June at the San Diego Rock n Roll Marathon. Craig thinks it won't be a problem if I continue to stay active on this blog site and listen to the running guru (Sasha).

Sounds like a nice run. I know that it sounds bad but I am quite the UFC fan. My husband has kind of got me into the sport. He use to be wrestler in high school. It sounds bad but Randy Couture just came into my work last week and I was pretty star struck. I am so jealous that you have so many people to run with. I have to pull teeth to get a group to run with me. Keep on truckin!
