How did you come to join Bayou City?: John Phillips nagged me until I joined.
My proudest running accomplishment is: My first marathon (Houston 2000).
My favorite training run is: Running in my neighborhood in Silverlake. There's lots of construction going on, so it's almost like an obstacle course getting through it all.
My favorite race is: The Houston Smile Run. I like getting all that toothpaste, toothbrushes, and dental floss.
My best distance is: 5k
I run because: I don't want to feel guilty about eating cake or cookies later. It's also a great stress reducer.
My philosophy for life is: Try and not worry about things that you can't control.
My next goal is: Run the Houston Marathon this January for four in a row.

When I'm running I think about: That nice bubble bath waiting on me when I get home.
The best running advice I could give would be: If you're slow, don't worry about it. Just be thankful you can run.

The top thing on my dream list: win the lottery so I don't have to work anymore.

I would love to spend the day with: Mike Piazza.
Other hobbies besides running: hanging out with my hubby and playing with my cats.
