I am also an avid runner and want to spread my passion for all things sports and exercise. I ran Cross-Country and Track for Southridge during my high school years and also ran for the University of Oregon's running club. You can find me running in the park, tossing frisbees, juggling, or playing ping pong. Maybe all at the same time.
