How long have you been running? 33 years
Do you have your next race planned? Probably the Tree Run
What is your favorite running route? I live on a frontage road so usually run there. It has several hills so is a good training route. I do like running new places though, esp trails.
What do you get out of running? Or how does running personally benefit you? I started running to lose weight after I quit smoking. If I take long breaks from running (several months once because of injury) I always feel awful. Running boosts my spirit and I love the camaraderie of the races.
How do you maintain your motivation to do the distance? I guess I try to internalize the Nike slogan. "Just do it".
Running Pets? I have cats. They don't run well. :o)
