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.

Wanted to make sure mybody was up to racing tomorrow so I did some negative split 1/4 mile strides.  Did four  -  6:23,6:10,5:58, 5:36 paces.   The first one felt the hardest.

I think I'm ready.  If I'm sub-19 , I'll be satisfied.

Went to the turkey trot but they had run out of numbers (@1,100!!).  That race gets bigger and bigger.  I ended up running the 1st mile hard (5:37) and then volunteering at the finish line.  Once the race was done, I ran around UAH campus and got some good miles in.
