Short-Term Running Goals:

On my way back.  Injuries and law school have taken their toll, but things are great now.  I've been logging mileage trying to build back to the 90s-100s.  No specific race goals right now, but I'm trying to race more.  I will re-examine in Spring.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Sub-2:30 Marathon.  

Personal:

I am currently attending Law School at St. Louis University--in my last semester.  I am not married, but dating a wonderful girl named Michelle.  I love playing piano and acting--in musicals.
