14 years ago, the first race I ever ran was The Race with Grace 10K with Emily (and a lot of other folks, but it was early on in our relationship - I was thinking about Emily).
The first half marathon (Greta's Gallop) I ran was with Emily.
The first marathon I ran (Rochester Marathon) was with Emily and my dad.
What a gift to have running tied, from the beginning, to people I love. It was even my brother Will who got me into running in the first place! Below is a list of races I've done over the past 14 years. Let me know if you want to know more about any of these races , whether it be stories, or descriptions of the race experiences!
