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

This is my 4th time running this race. The first year it was called the Overland 122 and then it changed to Wild Miles. Every year during the race I wonder why the hell I’m doing it and then I get home and can’t wait to do it again the next year.

2. Tell us a little about you.

I’m a straight white male, so for those of you I haven’t met, don’t get any ideas…

3. What motivates you as a runner?

I live in a house with 3 women--way too much estrogen sometimes. I need to escape every so often. Plus, I’m vain--I don’t want to be fat.

4. What are some of your favorite hobbies?

All sports--especially college football and basketball.

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

Good stories to tell when I get home. Looking forward to spending the weekend with all of you, sans James Gonzalez.
