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.

Ran 6 miles over to pt. mallard to meet Liza and Fiona at the water park.  After meeting them in the parking lot, we locked our keys, cell phones, towels, running shoes, etc.. in car.  I ran home in my TEVA's and swimming suit to get into house with our spare key and drive our car back to the water park.  Very hot!  96F.  Wave pool felt nice.

Drove to Wilson Morgan but locked keys in Accord.  Ran to Honda Dealership and picked up our Honda Pilot.  Drove that back home and got a spare set of keys.  Drove to BigTen Tires to get the Pilot's tire repaired.  Ran from there to Wilson Morgan park. Got Accord. Drove to Big Ten Tires.  Free Repair.  Drove back home  and then ran back to Big Ten Tires to get the Pilot.   Whew!   9 miles of running.

 Ran over to the RCR fun runs in evening.  Ran 1 mile hard - 5:40.  Did 3 mile as a hard tempo run- 19:15.  Cool down and then ran back home.  

Good day of running.   It hit 94F today.

Ran from home over to pt. mallard, ran the Spirit of America course (race tomorrow!) and then ran back.  We had some rain so temp dropped into the high 70's.  Felt nice.

Long ultra pace run.  Took it a little easy and started at 5pm when it was a little cooler.  I got rained for 30 minutes and saw some lightning in the distance but the thunderstorms skirted around me.  Ended up running at about 51 mile / 8 hour pace.

I've run 48 miles in the last three days.  I'm due for an easy week to finish out June.
