Sr. Online Editor at ACTIVE Network. I lead the running channel and oversee all cycling and tri content.

I'm currently looking for smart writers with fun voices to bring the endurance community together.

Previously, I was at Runner's World and Momentum Media Sports Publishing. When I'm not running, I'm writing a book of literary nonfiction. I've had stories appear in Sports Literate, Runner's World, and Gulf Coast.

But while it's possible to get round a marathon like this, it's unlikely to be pretty and it significantly elevates your risk of injury in the build-up.
