Personal:

Married with 4 kids - always thought I was healthy and fit - but only the past few years have I really gotten that way!

I mostly run for fun and adventure - looking to keep healthy while doing some longer stuff!

I love yoga, climbing, general fitness, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and staying active and able!

Run with Steve, Ryan (Crazy guy is doing Bryce100 in 2 days!), Jeff, Lane, and ... I can't remember the very tall doctor guy's name! 

Great crew, ran from the Farmington Pond up along the lower terrace to Shepard creek, then up to the Fruit Heights BST over to Bair Canyon, then back along a lower trail (sneaking through some yards yay!) and then UP (I hate that part) shepard again to the UPPER terrace trail and back to the pond.

Beautiful morning run especially after yesterday's rain!

Decided I hadn't done Mueller Park in too long.

Ran up to "Elephant Rock" (the bench) and scrambled down to then climbed up onto Elephant Rock itself for the first time.

Then, also for the first time, I ran up beyond Elephant Rock for a mile and a half because I wanted about 10 miles.

On the way up there was a group of four MOTORCYCLES coming down the trail, and I guess they went all the way down. Kind of frustrating to me because while I appreciate motorcycles and the fun of off-roading on them... Trails meant for horses, bikes and pedestrians are NOT the place for motorcycles. Grr.

Anyway - it was a beautiful day and a beautiful run.
