A quotation you like…

“somewhere behind the athlete you've become, the hours of practice, the races you'll never forget, the races you wish you could, the coaches who pushed you, the teammates who believed in you, and the fans that cheered for you is the little girl who fell in love with the sport and never looked back... 

...run for her."

Personal goals

Qualify for Kona within 10 years after doing my first Ironman

Why do you run?

Because I love to and it helps that it’s healthy for me 

Why do you pace?

I’ve been lucky enough to achieve most goals I set for myself. Now I want to give back to the running community and help others achieve what they set out to do.

Why should someone run in your pace group?

You’ve put the long, hard miles into your training. If your goal is my pace group, let me carry you through the pace without thinking. Enjoy your hard work and enjoy your race!

Any tips for runners about to join your group?

Train hard and race smart! And most of all never forget how much you love what you’re doing!
