I started running in 1983 (year 39 coming). I ran my first Boston in 2014 and have completed six total. What I am excited most about running is that it can allow me to truly be in the moment and share that perspective with others. Through running I am able to make a difference.

My Winning Philosophy:

"One mile at a time...you can only be successful by focusing on the moment that you are in. One mile at a time is how I run marathons, one bite at a time is how I eat and one wink at a time is how I sleep (just kidding about the sleep). I believe in the Law of Attraction, so I expect excellence daily in everything. It is contagious and you can catch it too. I call it Coach Barrett trained or simply CBT."
