Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Had a lot of pent up energy from not doing anything all week.  Between work and Lacy's parents visiting, there's just been no time.  Took my road bike out to Kamas and came back via Browns Canyon.  It was a great ride and probably ~3k worth of climbing.

Mtn bike to Glenwild and did the Flying Dog loop.  It's been about 5 years since I've done this loop and my new bike held up perfectly.  Kept it pretty easy on the climbs since I want to do a big-ish road ride on Monday.  Great day to be in the mountains.
