Most Memorable Race:

NYC Marathon 2014. It was the first time I had ever broken 3 hours in the marathon, but also was an INSANE head wind the entire way (signs were blowing off the bridges!). It's not my PR, but definitely my favorite race so far. Did I throw up at the finish line? Yes. Did I have a smile ear to ear? Also yes.

Running Role Model:

Lauren Fleshman. I've always admired her transparency with regards to her relationship to running, specifically after having children. She uses her platform to improve the women's running community and isn't afraid to be vulnerable. I just love her!

Fun Facts:

  • Thrift shopping is my absolute favorite hobby.

  • I was an Irish dancer and credit it for my ability (?) to hurdle.

  • I am a true crime junkie. Everything I consume (books, podcasts, movies) is DARK. Keeps me alert on my 5am solo runs.
