Head Coach
My first year with Denver Fit was in 2009 and I coached the yellow marathon group. I ran track in college hoping to stay in shape for soccer and have been hooked on running races ever since. I\'ve run countless half marathons and have enjoyed running the Seattle, Grand Rapids and Denver Marathons. My favorite distance is the 1/2 marathon and I\'m looking forward to trying out the Platte River 1/2 on April 11, 2010.

This is my first year with Denver Fit, and I am excited for it to progress! I have been a runner since the age of 10, competing from middle school through college in both cross country and track, mostly 5Ks, but also a few 1500s and the steeplechase. I also worked at Portland Running Company for a year before moving to Denver in January. Running for me is both a passion and a lifestyle, which is why I jumped on the chance to work with Denver Fit even though I just had a baby March 5th! I have only run one marathon – Portland 2008 – but am planning on running the same one again 2011, and qualifying for Boston 2013.

I started running with Denver Fit in 2005 and have run at least ten half marathons since then. This year I am training for a PR at the Georgetown to Idaho Springs Half Marathon on August 14, 2010. Georgetown was my first half marathon in 2005 and is still my favorite course!

Head Coach
I started the walking program for Denver Fit in 2000 and have coached the walkers each year including this year (2010). Prior to my work with the Denver Fit, I worked with the American Racewalk Association (Boulder). We provided various clinics and training in Racewalking techniques. During this time I was also active in competitive Racewalking events, at the local and national levels (USATF Masters and local races).

I have been a coach for Denver Fit since 2001 and have coached the Advanced Training Program (ATP) for two years. Over the years I have run multiple marathons as well as numerous shorter races, triathlons and bicycle races. Staying fit and striving to increase my performance is a life long goal.
