Why did you choose to run/wheel in support of Team U2FP?: My experience with U2FP, getting to know the team and hearing their stories, has been powerful.
Fun Facts
- What do you crave after training?: Water!
- Do you listen to anything when you train?: Quiet ... my head
- Tell us something unique or interesting about you? When my wife and I began dating, she asked me if I would run a marathon with her. I wasn't a runner, but said yes anyway. After completing Grandma's Marathon (in Duluth, MN), I asked her to marry me at our post-race family lunch.
- What makes you nervous or excited about the Virtual Run-Walk-Roll?: To help impact U2FP and to start running again... I ran Grandma's Marathon five years ago, and haven't run much since.
