Have you won any races?
Yes. The Nifty 50 50K road
race - 2001 and the Wapack 35M Trail race (2001, 2002, 2003)
What's the longest distance
you’ve run?
52.4 miles (officially), but
with the extra running around in Hopkinton between the baggage buses
and finding my chute, it might be closer to 54.
What do you think about
when you’re running for that long?
All sorts of things from random
thoughts to surrounding scenery, difficult issues as work or home (raising
2 teenage daughters?!). Some of my best thoughts/ideas come during a
run. It's remembering them when I’m done that's sometime challenging.
How many miles a week do
you run to prepare for the Heart2Heart Run?
I'll peak at approximately
80. The most important part of the training is back-to-back long runs
(16-20+ mile) runs on the weekends (or any 2 consecutive days I can
fit in). They teach you to be efficient and condition the legs to “run
tired” while still maintaining good form and technique.
