My background is that of a "long distance" runner. I have over 20 years experience in competitive running. I have competed in 100m dashes, marathons, and everything in between. I found quick success as a young athlete, which continued into high school and college. In high school I earned multiple All-State medals in Cross Country, and Track and Field. I competed at both the National and International levels. At last check, I still hold the 3200m record in track and field, and the 2-mile Cross Country record at my high school. I went on to be a student-athlete at a DII university where I was a part of multiple MIAA Championship teams, and was awarded Student-Athlete of the week, for excelling in the classroom and in competition. I am currently ranked as one of the top-ten steeplechasers through the university's track and field program. Since college I have competed in two half marathons, one full marathon, and over 50 other races of varying distances and disciplines. I am generally among the top women, and usually place in my age group. In the local triathlon circuit, I am amidst the top females and an age group placer. I have qualified for USAT National Championships every year I have competed.
I have recently added gravel, criterium, and road racing to my portfolio. I often find myself on the podium of the cycling races I enter. I completed the 2018 Dirty Kanza 200 in 15:48.5, leading me to 20th place in my age group. I'm training, growing, and consistently reaching goals.
Coached 10+ athletes to successful Dirty Kanza finishes - All distances, high school to 200 mile.
Coached multiple athletes to the podium for Sprint, Olympic, and Ironman distance triathlons.
Coached several athletes to the podium for gravel cycling races. Distances included 50, 80, and 100 mile.
