My daughter is a type-1 diabetic and survivor of a diabetic coma, so running is a major stress reliever for me. I typically run 18-20 miles per week and finished a 50-mile run/walk in 2006 to raise funds for diabetic research. I teach middle school and am the father of two daughters. I've been married for 23 years to the love of my life.
I'm working on losing some weight for my daughter's wedding this summer. Presently, I'm training for some 5 and 10ks this spring and hopefully will run a half marathon this fall.
