How did your love story begin?

We met at a wedding and started talking. Shortly afterwards we both ran the Mule Mountain Marathon which started in Bisbee and ended at the Veterans Memorial Park in Sierra Vista AZ. Frank took first overall and I got first in my age group.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

After we got back together we went on a road trip to Las Vegas. He ran the Baker to Vegas relay with his Boarder Patrol/Boarstar team and I ran the Revel Mt Charleston half marathon the same day. We fell in love again that weekend and he proposed on 5/4/2025. I said yes♥️

What would you do with $20,000?

The money would go towards a lap pool we have been anxiously waiting for. We are both runners with thousands of miles on our leggs. Frank qualified and went to the Olympic trials twice and I have ran 37 marathons. We’re at an age in our lives where we have to cross train to stay fit and swimming for both of us is a great way to do it.
