Why do you run?
|
I run to enjoy life to the fullest. I run to enjoy nature. I run to be with and help others. I run because I can! I run to relieve stress. I run for those who can’t. I run because I can! |

Describe your best marathon memory.
|
My best Marathon experience was the Indianapolis Marathon on November 6, 2010 when I qualified for Boston the first time. I had just had ACL surgery in April and I was able to come back strong and make one of my dreams come true! |
||
Why do you pace?
|
I pace to give back to others. So many people have helped and influenced and pushed me along the way to reaching my goals and now it is my turn to give back! |

Why should someone run in your pace group?
|
You should be a part of my pace group because I will get you to the finish line! I will motivate and encourage you the whole way and you will reach your goal! |
||
Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
Be ready to meet your goal! I will be a positive influence for you during the race and the word “can’t” is not in my vocabulary. |
