Personal:

Born 1972 in north central Wisconsin

Married for 11 yrs to very supportive non-running wife. Two children : Fiona, 6 (in picture) and Elliott (2 yrs)

Co-Race Director of  Delano Park 12 Hour Run (www.delano12.com). President of River City Runners (www.rivercityrunners.org)

3 cats and 1 dog (chocolate lab)

In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner.  I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled.   The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon.  6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

Very Painful.  It took 2.5 miles for my shin to loosen up.  My left leg although pain free never felt right.

I'm starting to think its because I put my 2140's in the freezer overnight. (they smell better but something is amiss)

 I'm ordering a new pair.   I'm going to switch back to Kayano's I think.

Working out at the plant on a new product run.  At 2aM, Ran 2 miles first in a light mist and then got called back to trouble shoot an equipment problem.  After that was fixed, I went out and ran more (~4am).

very jet lagged but the R.D. didn't need my help so I decided to run.  Ran better than I felt.   PR by 3 seconds.
