Find Your Strong

With one quick look at this blog, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what has changed recently. Some of you may already know the news I'm sharing, but now that it is public knowledge, I can talk about it more openly. If you follow this blog even semi regularly, you know how involved I am in the sport of running, even beyond that of a competitive runner.  My passion for running as a sport and life pursuit has motivated me to evolve my professional career in many ways.  Ways that give me the best opportunity to give back and support this community with the knowledge and experience that I've acquired and continue to acquire every day.

With that belief and motivation, I've recently accepted a job offer from Saucony and will be starting work for them immediately.  The position I've accepted will be that of the Technical Field Representative for the Washington DC / Virgina Region.  Saucony has globally been one of the fastest growing brands in the industry and has developed an iconic presence in the sport of running.  I am extremely excited to become a part of this community and contribute to their growing success.

I have now been in this sport for over 14 years and have developed as an athlete and a student within this field.  My employment experience in the industry and professional involvement has grown steadily in the last 4 years and the resulting success has been just as rewarding as my personal success as an athlete. This latest decision will be a great development in my ever evolving career and in the lifestyle that I lead.

As I move forward with these developments, I will not forget the experiences and relationships that have lead me to where I am today. I am extremely thankful to have had the opportunity to represent and work closely with a brand like New Balance. Furthermore, my involvement with the New Balance Boston elite program and the NB Boston Twilight Series will always remain as some of my proudest moments in this sport, both athletically and professionally. I will hold on to those lessons that I've learned and will carry with me the ambition to take on similar challenges.

Lastly, thank you to everyone in my life who has contributed to this development, from the very involved family and friends, to the less involved but equally appreciated followers and supporters. I know I have a lot more to learn going forward and even more to give!
