38, Pennsylvania I used to be... well, I'll be honest, I don't remember who I used to be before I became a runner. I started really running in 2009 and I can't remember my life before it. It kind of seems like it's been a part of my life forever.
I followed a Hal Higdon training plan for EVERY SINGLE long race I have ever done. If it ain't broke... Well wait... have you seen my times? Maybe it is broke. haha
