On the Prowl Archives 

What goes through your mind as you are running your races? Although it is probably best to have a clear mind during a race, I usually think about how many laps are left.

What's your ideal setting to run in (i.e. early in the morning, cool, crowd watching, etc.) My favorite setting to run would probably be a twilight, summer track meet with a packed stadium and music.

One TV show people don't believe that you watch... Laguna Beach

If you were on a deserted Island and could have one CD for your CD player, what would it be?

What is your major and why did you choose it? Biology. I fell in love with it ever since I got to dissect a Pig.
