Places I’ve called home and why I like where I am now:
Colorado Springs. I like where I live because I can say crud.

When I started running and what got me started:
When I was 6. I went with daddy on Santa Fe Trail. I started because I woke up really early because I wanted to tell some one about the coolest dream I ever had.

What does running mean to me:
I get to explore nature. I get to see choo choo trains (sometimes the engineer blows his loud horn and scares the crud outta me).

Running accomplishments:
2010 Aspen 1 mile fun run.

What I like about trail/mountain running:
It's nice and cool. I get to be with my daddy.

Favorite running trail and why:
Santa Fe Trail. It's so peaceful in the morning. I get to run with daddy.

Favorite trail/mountain race and why:
I volunteered for Garden of Gods 10 miler in 2008, 2010, and 2011 so that's my favorite. I liked singing "Today is Racing Day!" as runners pass by.

Best running experience:
The first time I ran on Santa Fe Trail.

Worst running experience:
Running on a trail near my home. I tripped on a rock and fell on my chest. It hurt like crazy, and I cired a little. Then I got up and finished the run.

Neatest thing found on a run:
I saw an ant trail. Hundreds of ants all walking in line for hundreds of feet.

Running related bathroom stop story:
N/A (not yet:))

Running pet peeves:
Untrained dogs that are not on leashes. Poop on the trail-people should clean up after their pets!!
