I have been training competitively since my junior year in High school where I ran for Liberty HS. I was on the 2005 State Championship team and that was what really inspired me to pursue a competitive running career. I competed at Southwest Baptist University where I became a 2 time All American (800 m, DMR). I didn’t want to end my running career in college so I continued to train post-collegiate and actually set several new PR’s training alone. Now, as a devoted husband and father, the desire to pursue my fullest potential in distance running still burns bright! My hope in joining the Smoke I will be acquitted to race like never before!
