Running hasn’t always been my passion. I was a walk-the-mile (or hide from it) kind of teen! In my early 20’s, I gave myself a goal: I’m going to run a 5k. One thing about me — once I have an idea in my head, I’m determined to do anything to make it happen. 

I quickly accomplished my 5k goal and moved on to 10k… then half marathon… and finally, full marathon! I’ve now run countless races and 2 full marathons over the past few years. I am particularly fond of long distances! 

Running went from, “yeah, right!” to one of my favorites parts of life. I joined the CCR Bel Air team in July of 2022. Charm City Run has just added to my love of running over the years and has given me so much knowledge on proper training, fueling, attire, and most importantly: community. 

I’ve been a part of several CCR training groups and have co-coached the Mighty Milers for several seasons. There is truly nothing better than accomplishing your goals alongside others who share your passions. As someone who went from never-a-runner to forever-a-runner, I’m looking forward to helping other runners accomplish their goals and support them through the process, no matter what stage of training they’re at!
