A quotation you like…

“Suffering produces character, and character produces hope, and hope doesn’t disappoint.”

Why do you run?

To stay healthy. Because I love it. Because I love to eat.

Describe your best marathon memory.

Running through the campus of St. Jude’s research hospital during the Memphis Marathon.

Why do you pace?

I love to run and I love to meet people. It’s the perfect combination of everything I like.

Tell us your best pacing experience.

The marathon is an amazing experience. Being there to see some of your runners cross the finish line for the first time is always incredible.

Why should someone run in your pace group?

I like to have fun. If you like bad jokes, bad singing, and occasionally bad dancing- the time will fly by.

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

The marathon is just another long run. Relax, get a good nights sleep, and don’t eat or drink too much during the race.
