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: |

| Lunch - 5 miles on the treadmill. After a couple days off due to a hectic work schedule, I was looking forward to today to blow off some stress via exercise. Warmed up a mile at 8:00 pace, then 1 mile at 7:00 pace, 1 mile at 8:00 pace, 1 mile at 7:00 pace, finishing up with another mile at 8:00 pace. Felt good, foot felt fine, my aerobic capacity felt better than last week, in spite of not running for the first two days of this week. I think that my fitness is starting to come around. And my weight is starting to drop, too, which is definitely a good thing. |

| Lunch - 5 more miles on the treadmill. Legs were a little sore from the interval work yesterday, so I took it easy for the first 4 miles, then got a bit antsy, and bumped the speed up to 6:00 pace for the last mile. I was huffing and puffing at the end - I could really see the lack of fitness at a high level, although I felt very good for the first four miles. So it appears that my aerobic base is coming back, which is definitely a good thing, but I need to increase my aerobic threshold so that 6:00 pace does not feel so hard from a cardiovascular perspecitve. My legs were doing pretty good, it was just my lungs that had a hard time keeping up. Walked around for about 5 minutes to cool down afterwards. Foot feels good. |
