Move into endurance mountain biking and trail triathlons (xterra, etc) 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running. Move into triathlons and get stronger. Keep succeeding at half marathons and the occasional marathon.

Personal:

I know Sasha from the CS program at BYU. We both graduated in 1997. He probably doesn't remember me, because he was definitely more vocal in class and among the students than I was.

Married to Teresa with 3 kids: Anders (4), Kristian (9), and Zoe (12).

Fluent in Danish, but there is obviously very little need for that.

6.5 miles in the light rain/snow shower. Warm enough for shorts, but I had to use gloves and a warm hat.

trail run. 7 miles. Pretty nice weather. The left achilles is giving me some fits after the run on Saturday, so I've made an appt with Dr. Toronto on May 4.

Slept with my left ankle in stretch mode. Woke up feeling good and ran 6.5 pain-free. I'm going to try that some more.

Not much this morning. Swam 1000m after work, which helped.
