||
|
Why do you run? |
To stay young at heart and meet great people along the way! |
||
|
Describe your best marathon memory. |
Take on the challenge of completing my first marathon and the feeling of accomplishment and pride that’s almost overwhelming after crossing the finish line! |
||
|
Why do you pace? |
I love pacing because you meet new people from all over the world and like coaching; you get the chance to help them achieve their running goals. |
||
|
Tell us your best pacing experience. |
Every time you bring a group in and get the chance to send them ahead during the last mile(s), know they will all meet or exceed their goals. That’s what it’s all about! |
||
|
Why should someone run in your pace group? |
By running with a pace group leader, you are able to concentrate on the run and your body in motion! The timing part… is no longer the problem J |
||
|
Any tips for runners about to join your group? |
Do yourself a favor and don’t start running faster than the group leader(s)… no matter how good you feel. Save that energy for latter in the race! |
||
|
Anything else you’d like to share? |
Pre-pace training should include learning what you can and can’t eat/drink on long runs. Don’t start trying anything new on or just before race day! |
||
|
What philanthropic activities do you have? |
Coaching Running at a local Middle School. Helping maintain local trails. |
