1. Why do you run? <b>I have never been remotely involved in sports. I was always the nerd. In school, they always emphasized team sports which just weren't for me. I discovered running as an adult and found I can be (relatively) good at it and get the individual satisfaction of doing my best. It also is my own form of therapy. I get off center if I don't run.</b><br>
2. What is your greatest accomplishment? <b>I don't think I've accomplished it yet.</b><br>
3. What is your motto/theme song?<br>
4. How do you deal with bad runs? <b>They usually suck at the time and I get frustrated while they happen, but I don't normally dwell on them. I figure the next one has to be better. I also try to figure out what went wrong for me to make sure I correct it if possible.</b><br>
5. Do you reward yourself for good runs? How? <b>Not really. Honestly the satisfaction is reward enough (seriously!!)</b><br>
6. Who do you admire most? <b>My parents. They've done so much for us (siblings and me) and gave us such a wonderful, loving family life. We always know we are loved. I hope I can be half as good a mom to my (future) kids.</b><br>
7. What is the greatest advice you have ever received? <b>Do your best!</b><br>
8. What do wish you had learned younger? <b>To run!!</b><br>
9. What do you wish you could do but can't? <b>Couple of things- to paint/draw and to ice skate. I also have always wanted to write left handed!</b><br>
10. How would your friends describe your personality? <b>Probably as out-going, sarcastic, friendly.</b><br>
11. What do you wear running? favorite outfit? <b>Usually compression shorts or capris and tech shirt. My favorite tech shirt is one I got in France last year! <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"></b><br>
12. What has been your favorite race? <b>Twin Cities 10 Miler. First race I did longer than 10K that showed me it really *isn't* that far! Plus, it was a beautiful city with beautiful weather!</b><br>
13. Do you have a goal race right now? <b>Madison, WI HM</b><br>
14. What makes you happy? <b>Being at the Jardin du Luxembourg in Paris.</b><br>
15. Tell us one interesting thing about you that you haven't said (at least not often) on this forum in the past. <b>Can't think of anything I haven't really shared (at least that's interesting) , but I hopefully plan to move to Europe next year. Been a dream to live there since I was a kid.</b><br>
