1. How did you get started in running?

2. What do you tell people that don't get our sport of distance running?
My close friends and family understand the sport, but the people outside of that generally have an appreciation for what I do without probably understanding too much. I don't try to explain anything. I generally just say I run because I can't kick a football.

6. Best or Worst thing about being a distance running?
Best is the feeling of winning, worst is injury.

Finish the season on a high and be competitive in all the remaining road races of 2012.
