Describe your best marathon memory.

Anytime I’m pacing….there are too many great memories with awesome people to pick one!

Why do you pace?

I LOVE people!!! And helping them achieve their goal of finishing in a given time is just the coolest thing to be able to do! It makes all the miles I run daily worth so much because they are for someone else!

Tell us your best pacing experience.

Yikes - I can’t pick just one!!! You’ll just have to run with me to hear all the gems :)

Why should someone run in your pace group?

We have fun, but we stay on pace, I am very communicative, and while my favorite part is being your cheerleader, I also will remind you to eat and drink and be there to help you with questions and concerns along the way - you will finish this with me! :)

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

I’ve got you - trust me!

Anything else you’d like to share?

What philanthropic activities do you have?

I volunteer at a home for folks with dementia and/or parkensens - I love the power of music therapy. I also support Hospice Savannah becuase of the incredible love and support they pour into our community.
