Sub 2:19:00 marathon Personal: I used to run competitively, and maybe I will do so again someday. Right now I am primarily running to try and get in better shape, and to maintain both physical and emotional health, but also for the simple joy that comes when I run.
I am also the proud daddy of five little ones. I love the opportunity that I have to be a daddy, and my challenge is to balance my family responsibilities with work and running. |

| Good news today, Kimia's bilirubin levels have dropped significantly, meaning that there is no obstruction in the common bile duct, so they are letting us go home. Kimia is also able to finally eat solid foods without throwing up, so that is a plus. She still is not feeling so hot, and can't move around very well, but that is to be expected after surgery. All in all we are just glad that she is doing well, and that we get to go home. | Add Comment |

| I ran alone this evening, running 12.1 miles in 1:27:02. I was under 7:00 pace at 7.5 miles, but I purposely slowed down over the last 4.5 miles. |

| I ran in the snow this morning... I hate Utah weather. Snow on the 22nd of April, when maybe 36 hours earlier it was almost 80 degrees outside. The first 1.5 miles of today's run were the most miserable 1.5 miles that I have run since the weather started to get cold last fall. The wind was in my face, and the snow was soaking through the zipper of my coat, soaking my shirt underneath. The snow hitting my face made my face burn, and I couldn't look up, because if I did the snow got in my eyes. Like I said, I hate Utah weather. Anyhow, 1:15:38 for 10.1 miles. PM: 5 miles in the evening in 35:56. I threw in some hill sprints as I came back up the hill towards my house. |

| Sasha and I ran a total of 20.4 miles this morning in 2:24:32. We kept most of the run slow, but we did run a 4 mile tempo a little over 2.5 miles into the run. The goal was to run the first 3 miles at 5:30 pace, and then to speed up the last mile. We ended up hitting the 3 mile mark in 16:29, and followed that up with a final mile in which we hit the first 1200 in 4:00 and then sped up the last quarter. Sasha ended up with a 79 last quarter, while I ended up with a 72. Total time for 4 miles was 21:41 for me, 21:48 for Sasha. Later on we ran 2 more miles fast, running the first in 5:38, and the second in 5:28 after a 400m recovery between repeats. The last fast mile was faster than it was supposed to be as I got excited due to seeing a few people on bikes that I wanted to run down while passing some BYU guys running in the opposite direction. |
