Bon vivant par excellence
Organizer of good things. Skeptical romantic. Needs pasta.

I spent the first half of the year recovering from being sick over the winter but I still managed 1,515 total miles. I only ran in four races, 305.3 total race miles. A lot lower than in past years and didn’t get in any miles the last three weeks of the year due to an injury but I’m feeling better and the pace has improved. Most importantly I’ve volunteered and crewed at a few events this year and in turn helped dozens and dozens of folks reach their personal records and more. I’ve also attended more events and not only cheered on my friends but also motivated others. Personally, the Uptown Gentlefriends events that I’ve created were even more successful this year, record numbers at the Track Attack and Delaware River Loop Series as well fantastic new course Dash & Deciduous 5k that I designed. 2023 is going to be great and I’m looking forward to seeing even more runners go above and beyond!
