Years Running 3
If you could run with anyone(past/present) who would it be?Why? Can I pick a few? Scott Jurek, David Horton, Michael Johnson, Ryan Hall
Do you have any pre-run/pre-race rituals? Race morning it's always Cap'n Crunch, a banana, and Gatorade. The fruit and drink are negotiable, but please don't mess with my Cap'n.
Favorite running memory Three summers ago, when I was really out of shape and had a little weight to lose, my wife took me out for my first run, a six miler, and beat the living tar out of me. I specifically remember this one really steep hill where I could no longer keep running. I walked, she waited for me, and I felt so miserable. Now, I run that course a couple times a week, and every time I run up that hill I pick up the pace and think back to that day. It's just a great tangible reminder of how far I have come.
Favorite pre-race meal Piles of Spaghetti and garlic bread, though I once ran a marathon PR off chicken fingers and french fries!
What is your favorite movie? Zoolander, because it taught me the valuable lesson that we too can die in a freak gasoline fight accident.
If you had to choose one kind of food that you had to eat the rest of your life what would it be? Oh, this is easy...Pepperoni Pizza
