Personal:

Married w/ four kids; Govt. Lawyer; Started running in November 2007 to get fit;  Never used to run unless I was chased, now I'm addicted.

"In truth, runners don't race other runners. They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares. And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better."  Running for His Life by Michael Hall.
