Places I’ve called home and why I like where I am now:
I've lived in C-Springs most of my life, but I have lived in Denver for 2 years and Alabama for 1 yr. I moved back to C-Springs when I was 26 yrs old and haven't regretted a day since.

When I started running and what got me started:
I started "really" running when my neighbor, Mike Everson, invitied me to an Incline Club run in February 2009.

What does running mean to me:
Running means swapping stories with my neighbor, Mike Everson, during our Saturday and Sunday runs up Barr. Mike has been an IC'er for a good while. Mike is the one that recruited me into the IC running cult. I agreed to join as long as I didn't have to shave my head. Little did I know that I would willingly shave it to decrease my times. :)
