1. What made you decide to run the Wild Miles Relay? And if you're returning, what made you want to return?

I've always enjoyed a team effort, but the ability to push myself beyond my comfort zone was enticing. I have to throw out a big thanks to Andrea and Drew who were my inspiration. These guys are full of enthusiasm and that is why these cruel sadists talked me into it. Clearly I have the memory of a goldfish, so I'm doing it again. Our diverse team, especially those awesome Marines make me want to try even harder.

2. Tell us a little about you.

I am a bonehead. Oh, and I have a wife, two kids and yes, hail from the Motherland.

3. What motivates you as a runner?

My wife tells me that I'm obsessive compulsive, ('no I'm not, yes I am, no I'm not, yes I am, no I'm not"). I am obsessed with surrounding myself with good positive people. You guys are my Inspiration!!

4. What are some of your favorite hobbies?

Duh, Running, golf, my kids and tearing off dead toenails.

5. What do you hope to get out of the Wild Miles Relay?

Let's see:

• Chafed butt cheeks
• Blisters
• Sore nipples
• Lot's of miscellaneous ailments...but most importantly, great memories with great people. Can't put a price on that now can ya!
