What do you like about the SLTC:  The people who are members.  Most of my knowledge of running comes from running and talking with members of the Track Club.

What do you want others to know about you: The sport of running has provided me with unbelievable experiences, including running throughout the US.  The Coronado Bridge in San Diego, the boroughs of the New York City Marathon, the French Quarter of the New Orleans Marathon.  I ran a marathon when I was 50 and 60, maybe 70 is in the future.  I dream of running races with my grandchildren, as I have done with my daughters.
