Describe your best marathon memory.

|
Why should someone run in your pace group?
|
I am not just a ‘sign’ to follow. I will provide advice and encouragement the during the whole run. I enjoy hearing others’ stories. We are out there for a long time running together – great time to get to know others. |
||
|
Any tips for runners about to join your group?
|
We are out here to have fun I am very approachable – don’t hesitate to ask questions, or, to chat during the run I will go out easy (few seconds slower that goal pace – will make this out over several miles) I will increase pace in the last 1/3~1/4 for a slightly neg split targeting 30 seconds under post group time. I slow down at aid stations so that water gets in not on |
