I run because of
the great feeling it gives me, being a truckdriver, sometimes I come home
from work very stressed out and a quick run when I get home makes it all
better.

Describe your best
marathon memory.
|
2007 HOT Chicago
Marathon. Misplaced a friend I was going to start with at the beginning of
the race and miraculously reconnected about 8 miles in amongst all the heat
related carnage and ran a 4 hour marathon with a big smile at the end!
|
|
|
|
I pace because of
the satisfaction of helping others.

Tell us your best
pacing experience.
|
Most recent was at
the Des Moines Marathon Oct 2009. A friend had just missed qualifying for
Boston just 2 weeks before and I talked her into believing the missed
opportunity was her last long run, and she bought it. Signed up and ran with
me the whole way for her perfectly paced Boston Qualifier.

Why should someone
run in your pace group?
|
If you have a
history of going too fast in the beginning of a Marathon and then crashing at
the end you should run with me because I will run even pace the whole way.

|
Any tips for
runners about to join your group?
|
Best tip is get a
good night’s sleep the night before the night of the race and relax the day
before. Race day- leave the worries to me!
