LAST RACE: The 2017 St. Jude Half Marathon. I stopped training when pregnant in 2018 and started running for fun.
MOST MEMORABLE RUN: Beating Eddie George (retired TN Titans running back) in the Nashville Half Marathon in 2007 by 15 seconds. Although I never saw him during the race, my name was directly above his on the finishers list.
I
f RUNNING:
I love the competitive nature of racing against my own goals as well as other runners, but also the therapeutic nature of running alone and for fun.
MUST-HAVES: On Cloudswift running shoes and Lululemon Pace Rival Crops
OBSTACLE COURSE: Recovering from an unexpected C-section. I ran throughout my pregnancy until the middle of the third trimester and hoped to return quickly after delivery. However, I had to restart very slowly and was much more deconditioned than anticipated.
FITNESS PET PEEVE: Slow walkers
BUCKET LIST: Half marathon in every state
BEST EATS: Hog & Hominy—can’t wait for it to come back!
