A quotation you like… It does not matter how slow you go, as long as you don't stop. - Confucius


Why do you run?
I find peace and quietness in the middle of a long run.  I look to find my limits.

Describe your best marathon memory.
My first one, when I crossed the line. Felt as anything was possible.

Why do you pace?
I would like to help others achieve their goals. At the same time I personally learn little more about running

Tell us your best pacing experience.
I just pace 100 mile race (Burning River) for a friend.  I started pacing him at 64 miles and was able to help him finish his first 100 mile race after 3 attempts at the distance.

Why should someone run in your pace group?
I have the experience to get you there.

Any tips for runners about to join your group?
Keep a positive attitude at all times. Bad attitudes make for bad races.26.2 miles is suppose to be hard.

Anything else you’d like to share? I will do everything possible to get you to achieve your goal.
