Name: Joe Emerson E-mail: jpemerson@earthlink.net
Why you decided to be a coach this year: To give back to the club that has done a lot for me.
Running/Racing History: I have run 3 marathons: 2 Marine Corps and 1 Richmond. I run 25-30 miles per week, which keeps me fit. I'm hoping to run 50-60 miles per week this summer and fall. Ten mile races (Cherry Blossom and GW Parkway Classic) are my favorite distance.
Top 3 Marathon Training Tips:
1- Make hill running a part of your training.
2- Take a long nap on Saturday afternoon after a long run.
3 - Cross train on your days off.
