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.

Explored some trails around the neighborhood mainly to see how I can get to Round Valley trail system from my house.  The shortest route is about 2 miles from my house, not too bad, decent amout of climbing though to get there, so this will be for bigger days.  Lots of variations in the neighborhood trails which will keep the regular morning runs fun.
