Hobbies or Special Talents:

For fun I love baseball! I had a blast spending nine years as the announcer for the Orem Owlz baseball team. I'd commute down to Orem during the summer months to announce ballgames. The Owlz were perennial contenders and won several league championships. It took me years to do but I have attended games in all 30 (all of them at the time) of the U.S. ballparks. There are two new ones (St. Louis and Miami) I haven't been to yet, but eventually I'll make it to those too.

A few years ago I started running. Before 2012, I'd never run more than a mile in my life, but I started training and practicing, building endurance and strength. I'm no speedster, but I did complete the Big Cottonwood Half Marathon this year, which is an exhilarating and empowering experience.
