I am a runner from the back of the pack reviewing shoes for everyday runners with my dog, Spirit. Why introduce another Youtube and now website for running shoe review? When I looked at the space I saw that a nearly all the people reviewing shoes were much faster and much smaller than me. I wanted to make a channel for people my speed who might also look like me.

I am a marathoner, an ultramarathoner and an ironman. I am a classically trained musician who came to exercise and running as an adult. I was never on the school track team, or the cross country team. I was in marching band for years, but that was the extent of my physical training as a teenager and young adult.

I began running as I began my weight loss journey following graduate school at the University of Georgia in an attempt to join the Navy as a musician and hopefully pay off those pesky student loans. Running has become a centering point in my life as I am sure it is for many, and I think that many of the traits that made me a good musician also make me a bit of a shoe and gear nerd.
