Why do you run?
|
That’s a good question, at first it was to control the weight that I gained from college years. Then I really fall back in love with it after my 4th marathon, I always needed a goal so I keep signing up for marathons, once I know I could do more the 3 or 4 in a season, I thought why not 12 – one a month for a year. Now that I have meet some of my running goals I like to Help others meet their goals in running . |

Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
I am a true believer in eating and drinking during the marathon. Not to much, a sip or two every water stop and Gel every 4-5 miles. If you don’t do this you will get week. Eating and drinking is a must !! |
