| Introduction | I am a mother of 4 living in the suburbs of New York City. I run to stay halfway sane and because it is the one thing I do by myself for myself. Running in the NYC Marathon has been a dream of mine for the past ten years, it is also my white whale. This is my journey to the starting line. I ran CYO track in elementary school (I'm counting that) and one year of cross country in high school. I started running again at 19 to lose weight and learned very quickly that I loved it. I started racing (very slowly) at 32. I have run five marathons so far, qualifying three times for Boston. I love running outdoors, usually on the streets. I think I would love trail running if bears weren't lurking behind trees waiting to eat me. For now, I'm happy on the roads. Many runs are adventures, many are boring. I won't know which one I'm in for if I don't get out the door. |
