about G

And I am G - A Latina Americana, mother of 3 college students and wife of my greatest Fan.


Yes I did it... ING NYC Marathon 2010! I was never a runner, but in 2007 I joined a dragon boating team. I soon realized that to in order to excel in that sport and compete at higher levels I had to get my body in shape so... i challenged L to run a 5k with me. January 1st, 2008 - First Run on New Year's Day. It took me 45 minutes.


Almost 3 years later now, with a few 5Ks (now 31:32!), a few 10Ks, a few half marathons and 2 marathons under my belt, I am ready for this big challenge of training for the Dragon Boat World Championships in Hong Kong 2012 with an amazing team. 


The gym has been hard but so much fun, or like L says (after a really big (Canadian) pint) "SO MUCH GOOD"
