2009 First Dam Run - 41:37 Long-Term Running Goals: 1. Enjoy running 'til I drop dead - and put that off as long as possible.
2. Don't get burn out :-) Personal:
I herniated/ruptured a disk (L4/L5) in my back in December, 2005. I told my orthopedic surgeon I wanted to start running. He said "You'll never run again.". What a challenge! So...I started running.
Since then I've lost about 50 pounds, ran 13 marathons and a number of other races.
I am still a clydesdale runner (over 200 lbs), have a large frame, big bones, and not built like a runner at all. I'm not fast. I mostly run to have some time to myself and keep in shape.

| 8 miles in North Logan. First 6 with Deron. He thought I already left so started out. I saw him about 1/4 mile ahead of me so I played "chase the rabbit". I caught up to him at mile 2. Then ran with him for the next four. Two more miles afterwards. Great day for running.

| Noon: 8 miles around North Logan. First 5 with Brent, then did another 3.
PM: 4 miles in Smithfield/Smithfield Canyon. Thought I'd get some fast miles in, but right after I started my stomach started doing flip-flops, so I slowed way down. Just before I hit the turn around point I met Conner coming down Smithfield Canyon. He turned around and went with me about 2.1 miles to home. Good cool-down for him.
I can feel the increase in miles. This morning I weighed in at 214. After the run this afternoon I was at 208.4. Pretty dehydrated. Drank a lot afterwards...got to drink more during the day.
