Running Accomplishments:

I have lost 90 pounds. This more than any thing else is my greatest accomplishment. After my collegiate running career I sadly stopped running and kept eating all the way to 265 pounds. After a lot of soul-searching and even more running I am now 175, the same weight I was in college. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Keep running. I simply run for greater health. I enjoy the struggle for self improvement. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to amass enough race t-shirts to make blankets for every bed in the house, as well as finally run a marathon. (Oct 15th SoJo Marathon)

I ran along Wasatch Blvd from Big Cottonwood Canyon to the North. There were plenty of hills along this route especial once I got to Parleys Canyon. I think there is just a bit too much traffic to do this run after dark.

NICE! That is a tough run, but a great one. I agree with the traffic. You should try going South some time. Our running group frequents Dimple Dell Rec center and then runs Wasatch North to Big Cottonwood. Good hills, I hear :) I've been too chicken to do those long runs with them!

That would be fun! I'm always up for getting my butt kicked.
