‘She’s helping the other runners:’ Pacing the Coastal Delaware Half Marathon
May 11, 2025
In April, I paced a half marathon for the 19th time — the Coastal Delaware Running Festival Half Marathon in Rehoboth Beach. This was my sixth year pacing this particular race, but it was a little different than usual for me. I decided not to run a spring marathon this year, so I really just … More ‘She’s helping the other runners:’ Pacing the Coastal Delaware Half Marathon
I tested my speed at the Shamrock Shuffle 10 Miler
April 12, 2025
I’ve been running the MD-DC RRCA Club Challenge 10 Miler for several years, and I used to run the Tim Kennard River Run 10-miler every year, too. However, the Club Challenge race is super hilly, and I’ve been volunteering at Tim Kennard for several years, so it had really been a while since I ran a flat 10-miler. … More I tested my speed at the Shamrock Shuffle 10 Miler

April 5, 2025

On another cold race day, I paced the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Half Marathon
February 3, 2025
It’s now become a tradition for me to pace the Rehoboth Seashore Half Marathon each December. This race will always hold a special place in my heart as my first-ever marathon in 2013 and a race that’s always been a lot of fun on a scenic route — that year and every year since. 2024 was my seventh consecutive year pacing the half marathon at this race with Beast Pacing. … More On another cold race day, I paced the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Half Marathon
NCR Marathon: I took on a familiar trail on a cold day
December 24, 2024
I’ve been traveling a lot for my marathons, but my most recent marathon — the NCR Marathon — was only a few hours from where I live now and less than 30 minutes from where I grew up. … More NCR Marathon: I took on a familiar trail on a cold day
Historic Drawbridge Running Festival: Consistent pacing at a new race for me
December 21, 2024
This year, I had the opportunity to pace the Historic Drawbridge Running Festival Half Marathon for the first time. I’ve been interested in this race before, but I hadn’t yet run it, because I always have a busy fall racing season. This year, I did run four November races, including this one. However, it worked … More Historic Drawbridge Running Festival: Consistent pacing at a new race for me

December 9, 2024
In November, I had the chance to run across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge for the 10th time at the Bay Bridge Run 10K. It’s in its fourth year under the current organizers, Corrigan Sports. … More I ran across the Bay Bridge for the 10th time
Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon: Fun with friends, consistent pace and sore feet
November 25, 2024
I had a great half marathon race earlier this year at the Salisbury Half Marathon, so time-wise, I wasn’t sure if the Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon would compare. And I was a decent amount slower at the Ocean City race, which was Saturday, Nov. 2. However, my race went much better than the inaugural Ocean City race in 2023, which was unseasonably hot. … More Ocean City Running Festival Half Marathon: Fun with friends, consistent pace and sore feet
