Bahamarunner

I have been a long distance runner since I was 12, when my track coach watched me run the 200 and advised me that maybe the mile would be my better race! She was right, and I haven't stopped. Most of my running life has been spent running 5k-half marathons, but over the last 5 years, beginning at age 40, I began running marathons. I am currently training for NY,  following the FIRST training program. This is the first time I have used this program, and this is my 5th marathon. I have been living in Nassau, Bahamas, for the last 13 years, and I am originally from Long Island, NY. I am a Physiatrist, which is a  Doctor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and  I am board certified in Sports Medicine as well.
