10 x state champion in high school (way back in the day!)
3 x USA team member
Short-Term Running Goals:
I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.
I would also like to run on one more international team before I pack it in!
Stay healthy! (My biggest challenge!)
Long-Term Running Goals:
Run my whole life, and then live vicariously through my children. (just kidding) , but I do want to pass on a healthy lifestyle to them.
Help coach East High to a state championship. (hope it doesn't take a lifetime!)
Personal:
I've been running since I was nine. I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me. We have two children: Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.) I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.
Another gorgeous morning. I love holidays when I don't have to hurry to get my run done. 7 miles. 1300 W up to Canal road. 6:45 last mile (good downhill) put my pace under 7:20. 7:16 average.
I ran 2.75 miles to the track and then ran 2 miles worth of speed changes. I thought I would start imcorporating a little bit of turnover. I definitely need to strengthen up still. I ran the short way home, for a total of 5.5 miles. 7:12 average.
