Just joined. I love running with groups and it's convenient
since I now live in Somerville.
Total number races:
Too many to count, not sure an exact number.
Favorite race (and why): Tufts 10K — because it is so empowering with the number of women
participants and spectators.
Favorite race distance: Probably a 10K, long enough to be a workout, but short enough
that you are not counting every mile.
Favorite runner: To be honest, I don't have one. But, I thought Deena Kastor did an
AMAZING job in the Olympics this year.
Favorite running shoe: Definitely Asics 2000 series (currently 2090's)
Average miles per week: 30-35
Most MPW Ever: 55
Best running memory: Finishing the last half of the Boston Marathon with my
older sister.

started feeling dizzy — really dehydrated.
