2019 Running Schedule

Feb - Mesa Phoenix Marathon (AZ): 2:37:45. Lingering flu didn't help, but I still got a PR.

April - Bonneville Shoreline Trail Marathon (UT). Mostly just going to be a training run. Finally got myself into the sub-4 club last year, so I'll just have fun with it this year.

May - Stillwater Half Marathon (MN). Goal race for Spring. Looking for ~1:12.

October- Chicago Marathon (IL). We'll see where I'm at in Fall, but probably will be looking for low 2:30s.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy, make improvements, maximize my potential.

Personal:

I am a bioengineering PhD currently working as a post-doctoral research fellow in the Department of Neurology at the University of Utah, where I design and improve neurosurgical approaches for treating movement disorders.


Summer 2018 update: I'm lazy about copying over from Strava, so find me over there for day-to-day runs until I eventually get around to copying everything over here.

Registered for Provo City Half and am still planning on the low-key BOSHO trail marathon next weekend, so better start training well again now that I've spent some money on the season. :)  

Worked 15 hours, but still fit in both a run and a lift, so that was good.  The only catch was that I didn't go to bed until 5:30 AM. Hah.

Run: 6 mile TM tempo after lifting.  5:57, 5:54, 5:55, 5:55, 5:55, 5:43.  Felt harder than it should've, but I'll be back in shape soon enough!

7 ish at lunch with Nate and Adam. Nobody had a Garmin, but we did a few minutes shy of an hour on a combo of roads and trails at an easy effort
