Community Involvement:
My wife and I are greeters and teach Sunday school at our church (Unitarian Universalist Church of Huntsville). We’re looking forward to getting more involved with the HTC as we settle into Huntsville.

Short term and Long Term Running Goals:
Short-term running goals are to finally run a good marathon (haven’t broken three hours in 3 attempts) and to get back under 17 minutes and 35 minutes for 5K/10Ks. Long-term, I hope to enjoy running relatively injury free for a long time and to possibly coach a high school or youth cross country/track team.

Brief Bio:
I ran most of my PRs in college at Georgia Tech off of relatively high mileage (70+ miles/week). I met my wife through running and we have a wonderful 3-year old daughter Sage and another baby on the way in Fall 2005. We moved to Huntsville in 2004 from the Washington DC area and are very grateful to have such a strong running community in a town this size.
