I first joined the DIVAS in 2006, seeking advice as I started running as a means of exercise. The DIVAS continue to support each other and offer each other advice on our personal running goals and races. We even meet up to race together and have forged friendships worldwide. I remain involved with this special group of women and they have been very supportive of my spin-off from our group name to my own Personal Training business. In February 2009, my casual running and 5K racing for exercise turned into a love affair. I turned to running to save me from a depressive state of mind after I became a casualty of the nation’s economic crisis. With so much time on my hands after becoming suddenly unemployed, I found myself on a new career path. The more I ran, the better I felt and the easier I was able to handle the stress of my (lack of) employment situation. While I am not a natural-born runner or athlete, I have learned to love the sport and work very hard to keep my own personal running and fitness goals with patience and persistence. I completed my first half-marathon this past February after having been previously sidelined due to developing Runner's Knee during a 5K. I have two bad knees but can still finish a half due to the commitment I have made to myself to train smart and listen to what my body tells me and to get my Runner's High fix! I graduated from Kennesaw State University in 1998 with a B.A. in English and minor in French. I currently hold the ACE P ersonal Trainer Certification and am certified by the American Heart Association in CPR and AED. I have worked in physical therapy and have helped a myriad of individuals from the Special Populations groups, including the young, athletic, and elderly with their therapeutic exercises. My ultimate goal is to encourage others in their fitness plans and to not give up! less
