Sandra - 2:15 Half Marathon Assistant Coach
After college I moved to Boston and needed a new hobby that wasn’t expensive. Stories from friends, colleagues, and strangers about the Boston Marathon inspired longer and longer runs from my Somerville apartment along the Charles River. My Mom mailed me a copy of Gallaway’s Book on Running. This soccer player never looked back.
Running has brought in so many good times over the last 20+ years! I have run eight marathons, many half marathons and I always enjoy a good turn around Memorial Park. Early on, I experimented with getting faster and shaved more than an hour off my first marathon time. Speed work works! My current focus is running injury free while beating my younger self. I love encouraging fellow runners to push past their limits to achieve new things!
I have hung my performance hat with RHC since 2021. RHC is a high energy community of supportive and committed runners. I am looking forward to getting to know you on the trail!
