RUNNING WITH PURPOSE
My goal is to make the U.S. Olympic team in 2012 and to win an outdoor national track title. I feel like right now I am perfectly suited for the 3,000-meter distance, which unfortunately is no longer an outdoor track event. There is a 3,000-meter steeplechase, which I may try this year, presuming I can pick up hurdling! However, I think my future is definitely in the 5,000. (I’d also like to run a marathon.) |

HOW I GOT STARTED IN SPORTS: I ran off and on for years, starting with 5k races and steadily increasing my mileage until I was running marathons. My sister-in-law inspired me to try triathlon.
ATHLETIC HIGHLIGHTS: Placing in the top 10 in my age group in the 2007 Ironman Baja 70.3 and qualifying for the Boston Marathon. |
