Long-Term Running Goals:

Get back to sub 3 marathon shape. Run an ultra and/or trail race. Continue to find joy in running and stay injury free!

Most Memorable Race:

2015 Boston marathon. Despite a crappy forecast, everything just clicked that day and felt effortless. I set out with a goal of 3:02 and when I learned I actually broke the 3-hour mark - something I never thought I could achieve - I couldn't believe it.

Fun Facts:

  • I grew up playing ice and field hockey. I hated running when I started so I picked the position that required it the least: goalie.

  • I've never been able to do a kart wheel.

  • When I was a kid I wanted to be a rock star or hairdresser when I grew up.
