Personal: I was married in 1997 to my beautiful wife Lybi (confessions of a piano teacher on the blog), and we have 3 wonderful boys who are just as active as I was when I was little (he he). I grew up in southeastern Michigan, and my family became members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints when I was 6. I attended BYU, and served a mission in Berlin, Germany. After graduating from BYU with a degree in Health and Human Performance (pre-physical therapy), I promptly changed careers and started working with computers (although no programming for me). We have moved across the country several times, and currently live in Mesa, AZ. I work in computer security for a major nationwide homebuilder. Favorite Blogs: |

| Hooray! I am back to running again after several months due to a stress fracture! I went out today during lunch and ran 4 easy miles. I could tell I was out of shape. Although the run felt very good, and there was no pain in my foot whatsoever, and I was running at an easy pace (8:30 pace), my legs were pretty tired at the end, and I was sweating pretty good, even though it wasn't terribly hot. I will probably only do 3 miles tomorrow to be a little easier on the legs, but boy does it feel good to be back running. There is just nothing quite like it. |

| Lunchtime - another run! No foot pain! Can you tell I'm excited?! 3.25 miles today, a little less than yesterday, but a little faster than I had planned. Turned out to be about 8:10 pace. Felt pretty good, even though the temperature was getting up there. High today is supposed to be 95. Sorry, all you Utahns . . . |

| Luch - since I got my shoulders sunburned yesterday after only 25 stinking minutes in the sun, I ran indoors on the treadmill today - didn't want to risk further sunburn. The nice thing about the treadmill is that I know exactly what pace I am running. So I ran 4.75 miles at 8:30 pace, and it felt good. No up- or downhills, so I was able to work on maintaining good form and relaxing. Still no issues with the foot. I'll drop down to 3 miles tomorrow. |

| Lunch - 4 easy miles outside. I wore a tech shirt to cover my sunburned shoulders. I took yesterday off, because I got really crappy sleep, and I wanted to avoid overdoing it. Sleep wasn't much better today, but a little better, so I decided to go ahead and run. Took it nice and easy, felt pretty comfortable throughout. I also wore a mesh hat, and that helped me to feel a little cooler, although I don't quite know why . . . average pace about 8:30 again, maybe a tad faster. |
