Tell us your best pacing experience.
|
The marathon is an amazing experience. Being there to see some of your runners cross the finish line for the first time is always incredible. |
||
Why should someone run in your pace group?
|
I like to have fun. If you like bad jokes, bad singing, and occasionally bad dancing- the time will fly by. |

Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
The marathon is just another long run. Relax, get a good nights sleep, and don’t eat or drink too much during the race. |
