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: |

Just a few miles today - drove back home from my wife's grandfather's cabin after spending the weekend there, and I didn't get very good sleep the entire time we were there, so I was pretty tired and didn't want to do very much. Plus I ate too much for dinner and that was still weighing on me. Nevertheless, averaged about 7:50/mile for the two miles. |

| Today was a much better day. I got pretty decent sleep, and I also ate better, so I was feeling a lot better when it came time for my run. 4.5 miles outside, nice breezy conditions, just a shade over two miles on the canal bank. Average pace of 8:05/mile, and I was extremely happy that I managed to stick to my desired pace and not speed up at the end. |

| It is finally starting to cool down a little bit, and this evening was just beautiful. I decided to run on the golf course that is part of my new regular route, which was interesting, because it was so dark. I ended up running through some sprinklers, and ran through at least 2 puddles from sprinklers, but overall it was pretty fun. I pushed the pace pretty hard for the last half mile, then cooled down and did some stretching. Average pace for the entire run was 7:55/mile, mostly due to the last half mile. |

| PM - I don't remember what my pace on this run was any more, other than it was around 8:00/mile. If I remember right, this run was a bit difficult because I ran shortly after dinner, so I still felt pretty full. Not much else to say about this run, other than that I got it in. |
