Describe your best marathon memory.

 

Ultramarathon-150mile race in which a pack of dogs ate my entire pizza, which forced me to think outside the box for nutrition

Why do you pace?

 

To give back to society. Everyone should be a runner in some sense and if I can contribute in some way, done!

Tell us your best pacing experience.

 

Someone who came up to our groups stating he was going to only hang with us for a bit and run ahead for the remainder of the race. At mile 17, he was on the side of the road as our pace group passed him. One runner in the group said, "you should have stuck with your pacer"

Why should someone run in your pace group?

 

You will receive a vast amount of knowledge, have fun, and will crush your time

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

 

Stay calm, remember I'm not a robot, and we will get to know each other after about 5k. Prior to this, we discuss our game plan in meeting your goals
