Why do you run?

Because it can be extremely difficult or extremely peaceful. Every run is different, yet it grounds you to discipline and consistency. Creatures of habit.

Describe your best marathon memory.

My first marathon when I pulled a rookie mistake and wore compression socks day of the race. Foot swelled up at mile 20, but I kept chugging along to the finish where my family was waiting for me. Had to walk with a cane after that haha.

Why do you pace?

To energize those trying to reach their goals and because its fun.

Tell us your best pacing experience.

Pacing the 4hr group in the Jersey City marathon. We were going up a hill mile 19—20 and one guy started singing Country Road and then the whole group started singing it together going up the hill. We didn’t even notice the hill.

Why should someone run in your pace group?

I bring energy. I bring excitement. I bring consistency. Very transparent during runs and always looking out for those running alongside me.

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

Most important tip is to have fun and trust in the training.
