(July 4, 2009) I ran the Honeyville freedom run (5k) in 19:29. The race starts at Crystal Hot Springs and traverses a combination of highway, gravel roads, and grassy/muddy river banks to finish at the Honeyville Park. I run this race each year as part of the Independence Day celebrations.
(A brief History) I grew up in the thriving metropolis of Kuna, Idaho (5,382) where I attended elementary, middle, and high school. After high school graduation in 1999, I spent a couple years in Germany as a volunteer on behalf of the LDS church. My wife, Andrea, and I got married in 2005. Our son, Cameron, loves to play basketball and drive his toy cars around the house. Our daughter, Madelyn, enjoys taking long and frequent naps. I received my bachelor’s degree in 2006 from Brigham Young University. Since then I have been pursuing a Ph.D. in mathematics in the field of statistics at the University of Utah.
