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.

Another goose egg.  This time of year is gnarly to keep on a regular schedule.   I think I'm headed for ski/cross train/down time mode.

had a late night at a freinds party, so decided today would be a good day to hit the trails with a buddy from work.  Did an out & back on the Boneville Shoreline from the U trailhead to somewhere above the avenues.  The views made up for how crappy I felt...spectacular!

6.7 w/ 1,200 ft vert?

Chilled out again this week due to work and trying to get things finished up before heading to Idaho for Thanksgiving.  Today we did a hike in the Targhee National Forest in the shadows of Grand Teton peak.  Amazing place!
