A quotation you like… |
“The best pace is suicide pace, and today looks like a good day to die” -Steve Prefontaine
|
||
Why do you run?
|
I run because it simultaneously relaxes me and pushes me beyond my limits. |
||
Describe your best marathon memory.
|
My best marathon memory was PRing at Wineglass and getting my long awaited BQ after many failed attempts. |
||
Why do you pace?
|
I pace because I want to share my love of running and help others crush their goals. |
||
Tell us your best pacing experience.
|
Wineglass 2021 will be my pacing debt so I look forward to making many great memories! |
||
Why should someone run in your pace group?
|
This will be my 5th WIneglass marathon in 6 years so I know just about every turn and pothole on the course. I’m a very energetic person and hope to provide lots of stories and encouragement for anyone who cares to listen. |
||
Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
Running a marathon isn’t easy. It will get tough and even suck at times. If we can work together to push through those feelings you’ll be standing at the finish line with zero regrets and a big smile on your face. |
||
Anything else you’d like to share? |
After two virtual marathons this past year I am so looking forward to getting back on the course for the first time this fall at Wineglass.

What philanthropic activities do you have? |
I recently traveled to Bekoji, Ethiopia to volunteer with young female runners through a program that provides them meals and training to keep them in school and from getting married as children.
