Location: Woodstock,GA,USA Gender: Female Goal Type: Boston Qualifier Running Accomplishments: I have been running off and on since the age of 14. Earned state records in the high jump and hurdles in high school and best mile time was 5:20. Now as I'm older run 5K and longer. First marathon was Honolulu in 1997 in 4:16 with Team in Training. Have run 2 more since, but slower times. I am now 47 yrs. old.
Short-Term Running Goals: I am running Chicago in Oct. and would like to run it in 4hrs. and qualify for Boston. I ran the ING Ga.

Long-Term Running Goals: I would like to travel and run several different marathons around the country and possibly throughout the world. I want to stay in the best shape I can for as long as I can. Personal: I have been a nurse for 22 yrs. and have been married to the same wonderful guy for 23 yrs. We have three sons 21, 19, and 16. I am the only one who loves running.

I earned my Level 1 coaching certificate for the USATF and would like to eventually get involved in coaching again.
