General Questions
1) What do you do in your non-running life?.
I work from home as a software engineer for IBM.
2) How did you get involved in running?
In 2006, I decided that I wanted to run a marathon. Up to that point, I hadn't done much running except as part of general aerobics classes. Go big, or go home. :)
3) What motivates you to run?
My next marathon! I like to have marathons lined up so that I'm always training for something. Working from home, I need something to motivate me to exercise, and marathon training does that for me.
4) What’s your favorite race distance?
That would be the marathon. I'm not especially good, but I am persistent. :) I ran my first sub-4 hour marathon last year, and I hope to have more!
5) At a typical TCRR race, you can find me __
In the starting field, and sometimes helping with clean up.

Rest is key to quality training, for any event. And as for Boston, if you qualify and don't get the opportunity to 'register' for it, just buy an entry through a charity. Its totally justifiable if you earned a BQ.
Can you add to the website that Bethanie King won the Mary Kay door prize from CC? I can add it to the discussion if I need to...........thanks!
