Places I’ve called home and why I like where I am now:
Kansas City, Phoenix, There's something to like about all the places I have lived. Don't think I could nail it down to anything in general.

When I started running and what got me started:
About 8 years ago I was walking around the park behind my house approximately 1/3 of a mile. Wondered if I could make it all the way around by running. I didn't make it! It became and obsession from that point to see how far I could push myself.

What does running mean to me:
Not a thing! I don't look at running that way, I just do it cause I like it. Funny, I hated it when I was a kid.

Neatest thing found on a run:
I have seen lots of things but have found nothing.

Running related bathroom stop story:
Yes, I have some bathroom stories but they are really crapy so I won't tell them.

Running pet peeves:
By the time I get to the finish line everyone has already gone home!

Something non running related that no one would guess about me:
I couldn't even guess what that would be myself.
