Most Memorable Race:

Post-college 5000m PR. Even though the time wasn't what I wanted it to be I ran a very smart race, and had never raced as mentally tough as I did in that race.

Running Role Model:

Coach McDannald, my junior high cross country coach. He began running cross country in college at EIU, and is the greatest influence on me as a cross country coach myself. I'll still hear his catchphrases during workouts.

Fun Facts:

I used to be a drummer (saving to get a kit to play on again)
Indoor track is my favorite for racing
Country running > running in town
