| Introduction | I am a wife, a runner, a student, and an employee. I began running a year ago (December 2007), and have been addicted to the sport ever since. Every time I go out for a run, I hope to get a little better, go a little farther, and learn a little more about myself inside and out. I started running after I experienced a major crisis in my life, the loss of my mom, and it has really helped me learn about my strengths and how to cope with all of my internal demons during such a hard time in my life. I feel that in a sense, running saved my life. I am a full time student working towards a career in nutrition science. I am about to graduate from Tacoma Community College with my AAS and will be transfering to Bastyr University, a naturopathic school north of Seattle. My passion is nutrition, and exercise, and I will be doing something related to that for the rest of my life. I am married to my best friend, and the man of my dreams, and we have spent the last 12 years of our lives together. I feel so fortunate to have him in my life and to have what we share. |
| Interests | These "fill in your interest's" boxes always seem really cliche', but I'm gonna do it anyways. Running, being with my bubby, school, science, nutrition and exercise, learning new ways to help the environment and ways to be more "green" (yet another cliche, but still a good thing to do), and anything that will help me be a better, calmer, more informed person through self discovery and personal improvement. |
