THIS IS MY RUNNING JOURNEY
let me help you start yours
Home: Welcome
Exploring the world with your own 2 feet
Running has allowed me to explore and experience so many different landscapes. From the rocky coastlines of Maine to the deserts of Nevada, I love it all. The local woods feel like a second home to me. I'm so grateful I have the ability to move in the awe-inspiring outdoors. Super thankful for the role running has played in my family life.
​
Heartfelt thanks to Dan O'Brien for letting me use his original music, "Domestic Bliss" for this video. Mary Phillipuk created the video- thank you, Mary, I appreciate you! A final thank you to Aaron Burt for chasing me around Mountain Lakes for the running footage.
