SLTC Home	St. Louis Track Member Profile
	Jereme Foster
	Age: 27 Born: Springfield, Mo. Occupation: Project Manager Family: Mom, Dad, brother and sister are still in Springfield. I’m survived in STL by my 140-lb puppy, Titan. Favorite restaurant: Sage. Favorite movie: For the Love of the Game. Favorite book: Atlas Shrugged. Why did you start running: After playing college baseball and having my career end because suspected testicular cancer and having surgery at the most inopportune time, I had a large athletic void in my life. I tried rugby at first and kept active running 30 minutes a day, playing basketball, baseball and other various sports. I was in sales at the time, and walking into appointments with black eyes and scratches doesn’t help close a deal, so I had to drop rugby. I was then challenged by a co-worker who was partially paralyzed and had completed 14 marathons to run my first. Eight weeks later I finished my first marathon in 3:10 and was addicted! I now run for my life, health and mental satisfaction. Running since: Seriously, Oct. 2009; originally, since 1986. SLTC member since: August 2010. How did you learn about the SLTC: Website. Miles per week: 35-60. Favorite place to train: Soulard, Lafayette square, Forest park, Creve Coeur Lake. Favorite workout: 40-minute lift and a 9-mile tempo pace around Lafayette Park. Most satisfying performance: First marathon in 3:10:15 or first time I placed first in the Clydesdale division of the Innsbrook Triathlon 2010. What do you like about the SLTC: Current running info, events and community. What do you want others to know about you: Converting from team sports where running is punishment to running now for enjoyment has been a big transition. I travel for work and running allows me to have a first-person view of the most amazing spots in the US. From discovering Civil War battlefields in Arkansas, to dodging traffic in downtown LA, to running along the freedom trail in Boston. My running shoes are the first thing I pack in my suitcase and the first thing I take out.
