What keeps you going?
When I was training for long distance triathlons the
training would be really challenging sometimes, so I would always joke about
keeping my ‘mojo’ going just to keep up with balancing everything in life.

Favorite race distance:
Probably half marathon or 10 mile, it is not too much to
train for and you can still walk the next day.

Why did you start working with Nichole/TNC?
To help me train the right way – not over or under train,
have more fun with workouts and meet others.

Do you have a favorite shoe brand, model?
I used Asics forever, then they changed the shoe a few years
back – so I started with Mizuno’s a couple of years back, I use the Wave
Inspire 9’s for training and racing. I love these shoes so much I have 4 pairs.

Last, any fun facts about yourself? Special talent, or travel experiences?
We bought a house in the country last year and the house is
pretty outdated so we have a remodel planned for this summer so we are looking
forward to this.

My
favorite color right now is orange, I have this bright orange rug in my office
and I love it because it makes the room light up, I’m the only one in the house
that likes it, but that is okay 🙂
