I can’t imagine not running! It is the best way to start the day and I always feel better after a run. I also run so I can eat chocolate. J |

I ran with a pacer during the All-American Marathon at Ft Bragg, NC. He was awesome! He kept me motivated and on track when I needed it. I would like to be that person for others. |
