1) I am a trail runner. Without really planning it, I have become an ultra runner. I am surrounded by friends who have run amazing distances in exciting places. Somehow I got caught up in their enthusiasm and joined in the fun. I am not too fast but I’m not slow either. I sign up for races to stay motivated, but mostly, I simply enjoy time on trails with friends. In my running life, I am very goal-oriented and a firm believer in the power of rest.
2) I am a kindergarten teacher. This came with a lot of planning, schooling and preparation. It is an exhausting and stressful occupation which often takes over my life and cramps my ability to pursue #1. But I believe in the good that I do and I think I do it pretty darn well.
3) I am a soul-mate. Bruce and I have been inseparable for more than 20 years. He is my greatest fan – and I his. He has opened my eyes up to many a world-wonder and we are as well-matched as a couple can be.
4) I am a non-food-mixer. There are two kinds of people in this world – those who will readily let their foods mix and mingle on their plate, and those who opt for a divided plate whenever available. I belong to the latter group.
