It makes me a better version of Katie

Describe your best marathon memory.

 

Realizing my friend Keith was right, running a 22 miler in your training makes ALL the difference in the real event.  I didn’t hit a wall like I normally do at 20! 

Why do you pace?

 

It is the next logical step.  I love coaching and cheering people on while I run and race, so might as well be official J

 

 

Why should someone run in your pace group?

 

I am the most fun person in the universe!  Ask anyone who knows Katie!

Any tips for runners about to join your group?
