Brief Biography
I received my degree in Exercise Science from Wichita State University in 1999. I have worked as a Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor since 1998 and started my own training business in 2007. I began running consistently in 2002. I enjoy running all distances, but particularly enjoy the challenge of the ultra distances. My favorite distance is the 50k and favorite race, the mighty Mountain Mist, right here on Monte Sano. I enjoy helping others reach their fitness goals and improve their quality of life. I have helped many people train for and complete races of all distances thorugh both my career and coaching the Fleet Feet training programs. I have been married to my husband, Tony for 17 years and have two children, Courtney and Brandon who are very active in sports.
Short Term Goals
To run a 3:40 marathon and a sub 5-hour 50k. I am also hoping to finish in the top 5 women in my next trail 50k in June.
Long Term Goals
To improve on my times for the ultra distances, especially the 50k. I am planning on running one 100-miler per year, while picking a tougher course each time. I would like to continue to coach more progams for Fleet Feet in order to help get more people moving. I would like to help them expand and continue to inpsire people to run, walk, or just get out there and be active.
