5/20/2023 ~~ Ogden Half Marathon

I ran the Ogden Half Marathon for the 3rd time today (4th if you count the virtual run in 2011). I carpooled to the busses with my neighbors, Troy Langston and Matt Lee. I ran for a bit with Betty Yamashita and Jackie Byington. I even saw my sister, Marybeth near the finish line. Her daughter, Sara Lemon, ran the full marathon.

5/11/2011 ~~ Ogden Half Marathon (virtual)


I signed up for the 20th Ogden Half Marathon in 2020, but COVID happened and the race was deferred.  I decided to run the virtual option in 2011.

7/18/2015 ~~ Layton Triathlon


Today I did my first triathlon.  The Layton triathlon sprint distance is special, because you do half the distance of everything and then repeat it.  

300 yd swim
5.5 mile bike
1.55 mile run
and then REPEAT!
It was fun.  I was least prepared for the swim, so that part wasn't the greatest.  Good thing I know how to do the back stroke!!

10/4/2014 ~~ St. George Marathon


This was my third time running the STG!  It was perfect running weather.  A bit cold and windy waiting to start, but otherwise, it was amazing.  I ran with my neighbors Kevin Brown and Matthew Lee.  Kevin ran fast enough to qualify for the Boston Marathon.  Matt and I ran together until about mile 22.  I was just trying to keep up with him!  I was able to beat my marathon personal record by five minutes and my STG marathon PR by 10 minutes.  My amazing wife and kids were there to support me the entire way!!




Time = 3:54:39
Pace = 8:56
