Hi Everyone!

I made the below announcement a few months ago, and promised I would be back with updates when they were announced! 

I'm excited to announce that I will be running the Humana Rock 'n' Roll Philadelphia Half Marathon on 09.15.2019!  

This event will always be near and dear to me. In 2016, this was my very first half marathon! Amazing how time flies, and how one challenge and achievement leads to the next! 
Course: Race starts in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. A little over 3 miles in the city, including around City Hall. Back to the museum. Down Kelly Drive along the Schuykill River (boathouse row side), cross the river, then back down the river on Dr Martin Luther King Jr Dr back to the museum.
