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.
Slip-slid my van up to the Olympic Oval for a workout on this balmy 8 degree morning. I warmed up 15 minutes and then ran a fartlek workout. 1-2-3-2-1 minutes with 1-1-2-1-1 recovery. 2 sets. I timed parts of it to see how fast I was running. It was usually 83-4 pace on the fast parts. 1 mile cooldown. Then I slip-slid down 5400 back to my house.
