As a New Yorker - by way of Michigan - I appreciate brevity and thus I'll give you a quick rundown on who I am and what you might find here.
- I've lived in NYC since 2004 - working first for a major record label and now for a PR agency
- I started running earnestly in 2006 and fell in love with it, even though I'm prone to injuries
- I married the love of my life - 'Woody' - in 2007 and am so thankful to have him in my life
- In 2008 I was diagnosed with a rare condition called Cushing's Disease and underwent surgery to have a tumor removed from my pituitary gland 10 months before I ran the marathon; I still deal with the effects today
- Not until 2010 did I actually start to spend time cooking and trying new healthy recipes - I think we're some of the few New Yorkers who actually spend more money on groceries than meals out
- In 2011 I became an ambassador for Oiselle - the coolest women's running apparel company out there - and run for the team
- Traveling is a passion of mine; if I could travel every month I would
- I love trying various fitness classes - keep it fun & interesting!
- NYC is an incredible city and I'm blessed to call it home
