7) Favorite inov-8 gear: X-Talon 212. An awesome shoe for almost any race. The RocLite 295 is a great shoe for training.

8) List one thing others may not know about you:
I was a two-time state jump roping champion in elementary school.

9) Favorite energy drink/food: Sour patch kids. Great pick-me-up with a sour flavor after sucking down gels during long runs or races

10) Your favorite race and why? Mt. Washington. 7.6 miles of flat-out, straight-up mountain running. If you run well here you can run well anywhere.

Keep it fun. If you’re training isn’t something you enjoy, you’ll never truly reach your goals.
