Thor on byu track?

Would you expect someone running fast 200s to be a skinny little kid?

Ed Eyestone ?

He is a plastic surgeon that practices here in Utah. He is a former college athlete. He ran the 800. I have visited with him a few times. Very nice guy. I think he ran in the 800 in about 1:46 ish back in the day. He still runs a lot but he put on a lot of muscle so he isn't as fast anymore.

The marvel thor is not the real Thor. He is just a fictional comic book character.

The real Thor is the THUNDER. Remember that next time you are in a severe thunderstorm. It is unwise to insult the Thunder.

Though it is true that Thor's favorite distance is the 800.

Has he ever had plastic surgery ?

I've seen him on the Provo hs track too. Dude is mega fast if he's really that old. But yeah nice guy.

I will be in Provo next week. Is it ok to run on the track ?

Absolutely. Unless you want to be crushed by the aforementioned Thor.

In all seriousness, the outdoor track is fair game unless the BYU team is running at the time. The indoor track is generally only allowed to be used by BYU students and staff.

My buddy and I do strides on the grass by the BYU track after our runs on tues/thurs, and keep seeing a tall blond guy working out on the track in the evening. We timed him the other night running sets of 200's in 25/26. The dude is ripped, and always seems to be wearing nike stuff that the general public can't get- like national team type stuff. He looks exactly like Thor. My buddy asked him who he was, and just said "a 41 year old has been" or something like that. Does anyone in the area have any idea who this might be? Is he a coach?

Might be Ryan Hall.

Are there nice trails nearby ?

I'm staying in Saratoga Springs but will be in Provo most of the time ?

I was going to say it might be Ryan Waite but he's too young. Someone put out an APB on this guy.

Do you think it might be the BYU QB, Taysom Hill?

He'd have the Nike swag, would be jacked, and definitely does some track work to keep the speed in check (see all the rushing records he set last year).

Check out the Bonneville Shoreline trail! It's everywhere.

Here's a short portion that gives some beautiful views of the valley along the way

If you want some intense running, you'll notice the Y trailhead is off the shoreline trail. Goes all the way up to the top of the big 'ol Y.

If you're feeling really adventurous, you can kinda see the trail on Google maps - it goes from the top of the Y to the top of Y mountain. Fun hike and doesn't take all that long.

He's definitely legit. Had a Thor sighting last night, and he was rolling.
