How did you hear about Pacifica Runners. The classic banner on Hwy 1!How long have you been running, walking or hiking as a form or exercise? What motivates you to stay at it? I've been consistently running since 2022. I love how running builds such a strong community and offers a great way to spend time with friends. On top of that, I genuinely enjoy training—the discipline of putting in the work and challenging my body to see my running improve is what makes the sport so rewarding for me.How did you get into running, hiking or walking as a form of exercise? I ran short-distance track events in middle and high school, then ran for fun on and off, but struggled to find consistency for a while. I finally got hooked training for the NYCRUNs half and have signed up for several races every year since!If you're a runner, do you have a favorite race? If walking or hiking are more your speed, where is the best place you've ever taken a walk or hike? The Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Run 10K was my first race after moving to Pacifica and has a special place in my heart. I loved the course, local spirit, and the energy from the club at the race. What are your favorite running/walking/hiking trails/routes? What are your future running or fitness goals? I'm training for my first marathon in Kagoshima, Japan on March 1st!What do you enjoy most about Pacifica Runners? The members! The club has amazing people that are all so down to earth and easy to chat with -- everyone shares such a strong love for Pacifica and running. Second favorite thing? Surprise coffee after Saturday long runs :) |
