Most Memorable Race:

My first marathon: The Great Ocean Road Marathon in Lorne, Australia. It was during a semester abroad in college; one that my coach begrudgingly allowed me to sacrifice a track season for. I knew I'd need something keep me fit for my senior XC season, and just mileage training sounded boring. I heard about it in a book, and signed up as soon as I could. It was 27.5 miles (yes, a bit long) of ocean views, eucalyptus trees, pastures, and a ripping headwind the whole way. It was such an amazing race, and I dont think anything will ever beat the experience.

Running Start:

I grew up playing baseball, but my older sister ran XC and Track all of high school. After she'd graduated, she put my name on the XC interest list and forced me to the first practice in August as the only freshman boy on the team. It didnt take long to fall in love with it, and I haven't stopped since.

Fun Facts:

  • I love cats.

  • I grew up in Charlotte, NC.

  • I played the cello with NFL quarterback Daniel Jones's younger sister in high school.
