Allie Walters - DWRunning

DWRunning Tenure:

Joined in May 2008 as Dan's original athlete

PRs: 

5k: 18:17, 8k: 29:58, 10M: 62:30, Half Marathon: 1:24:36, Marathon: 3:05:44

Long-Term Running Goals:

Despite not training seriously for a couple years, the elusive 3:00 marathon barrier still speaks to me and I hope to chase after it post-kids.

Most Memorable Race:

The 2011 Boston Marathon - the one and only perfect weather day at Boston (50 degrees with a tailwind) was my second marathon and I ran an 8 minute PR. The intense energy of the crowds and how invincible I felt is something I'll never forget.

Fun Facts:

  • I do most of the behind-the-scenes work at DWRunning including developing this website

  • Much to Dan’s chagrin, I’m a proud DIY-er and have happily tackled many projects involving everything from carpentry to electrical

  • I have a slight (okay severe) obsession with our cockapoo, Penny, and make her Halloween costumes each year (‘Penjamin Franklin’ is probably the best yet)
