Races

Here's a list of my most memorable races!

- The Rochester MVP Half Marathon, 2010
This was my first half marathon. My friend Carrie got the brilliant idea that we should train for a half marathon together. I had never run more than three miles in my life, but for some crazy reason I agreed to her plan. Training for that race was an amazing experience, and it sparked my love for running.



- Hairy Gorilla Half Marathon, 2010
This race is memorable as it was the most miserable race I've ever run. Three hours of trail running in the freezing cold.... destroying my shoes... I'll never make that mistake again!



- Marine Corps Marathon, 2012
One word. Incredible. Andy and I trained and ran it together. It was the experience of a lifetime and I am so so so glad I made the choice to run a full marathon, even if it meant countless weekends lost to long runs and some really gnarly blisters!



- Reindeer Run 5k, 2012
This 5k is special to me because it is the fastest 5k I've ever run. My friend Sarah (who is a cheetah) paced me and got me to the finish line faster than I ever thought I could. We finished in 26:69 - an 8:32/mile pace! Wow!!
