My addiction for running began in April 2010. A good friend of mine tried to persuade me in doing the Nautica Malibu Triathlon Relay. Due to the timing of the event, I was unable to participate but was still interested in the idea of long distance races. I searched for local races in the area and discovered the Rock ‘n’ Roll Inaugural Los Angeles Half Marathon. With no running experience in my past, I decided to sign up for the event and give it a shot. After completing my first half marathon, I felt a new sense of excitement and accomplishment from running. Thus my addiction for running began; I have continuously searched and signed up for new races. I may not be the fastest runner but being around other runners easily inspires and motivates me to new reach new goals.
