Describe your best marathon memory.

 

The scenery in Newmarket NH in the fall.  Rolling hills with scenic New England style homes. 

Why do you pace?

 

I really enjoy helping others achieve their goals.

Tell us your best pacing experience.

 

Having a person in my pace group who had doubts of finishing in the allotted time.  With several miles left he went ahead of the pace group and PRed.  That's what it's all about!  

Why should someone run in your pace group?

 

I am encouraging, energetic, and will get you to the finish line with the PR you are after.

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

 

Trust your training, don't go out too fast, hydrate and gel regularly.  Most importantly trust your pacer!!
