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.
One more week off. Back to it today. Goal was five, but got talking and ended up with almost seven. Leg not 100 percent, but doing much better. I think I can keep steady easy mileage for a week or two.
I was lazy yesterday. But, today I met Becca and managed to get nine miles in. Feeling better every day! Thinking seriously about running Phoenix/Mesa Marathon in February. 7:25 average.
