Profile

Always liked running, as far back as elementary school. I was fat and short and slow and did horrible at it. But I always wished that I could run. Started running against a friend for competition in gym class toward the end of middle school, where I was introduced to the idea of cross country - "it is kind of like tag, in the woods". Sounded fun. Began training for the first time ever during the 8th grade -> 9th grade summer. Ran cross country for my high school and loved it. Have been running on and off since, and am currently recovering from knee surgery and training for the Baltimore Marathon.
