Why do you run?
|
Originally it was to keep my weight down, now
it is to keep be even keeled. Runnign reduces my stress and allows me to relax
and enjoy life. Without running, I would be stressed, high strung, and an
angry person.

Describe your best marathon memory.
|
Too many to count. My first marathon win (very
unexpected). Crossing the finish line at Boston. Sunrises during marathons.

Tell us your best pacing experience.
|
(as an unofficial pacer) I once met a guy 1
mile into a marathon who was running his second marathon ever and trying to
qualify for Boston. I ran with him for the next 25+ miles and he qualified
with 30 seconds to spare. Running in between a mother and baby moose (in
Alaska). World record fastest marathon while dribbling a basketball.

Why should someone run in your pace group?
|
Never a dull moment. I enjoy talking during a
marathon. I love to swap stories and share insight into marathon running. The
miles will fly by if you are with me as I will keep you thinking about
something other than your quads screaming

|
Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
You can meet your goals and have fun all at
the same time.

|
What philanthropic activities do you have?
|
I give of my time whenever possible, at local
races, the Boy scouts, school activities, etc.
