Running 2016

Since running was one of my hobbies last year, I thought I would write some about my experiences with that.  It all started July 2015, when Dave Yung invited me to run Ragnar with him the following year.  I knew some of my friends had run Ragnar, so I agreed to do it.

Prior to this time, I hadn't really run at all.  I was on the track team my Senior year in High School, but I think the coach forgot that I was on the team, so I didn't compete very much.  I ran maybe a couple 5Ks prior to this, once through a park with the YSA stake, and at least once on the treadmill at the gym.  I'm more of a biker, I rode my bicycle tons of times, and riding long distance doesn't bother me at all.  But I figured a full year would give me plenty of time to practice and train myself up so that I'd be able to do it.
