Kelly Pound

I started running in college to stay in shape but never ran more than 2 or 3 miles at a time. Last year I moved to Tulsa and signed up for the 5k in the Tulsa run. Following that I got an email from Runner's World about their free marathon training program and the rest is history. I started the program in December and each week I ran the most I had ever run until I finally ran my first marathon in OKC last April. Since then I have become addicted to running long distances.

I am co-leading a team with Ashley Snyder who I met running with Runner's World. She has become my favorite running buddy. Our team name Happy Pace seems to be our motto for running in general. We just run to have fun and try to be happy and encourage others at the same time.

A little about me, I am 27 and not married, although I do have an awesome boyfriend. I don't have any children. I do however have an adorable mini Australian Shepherd named Benny. He likes to run as well as destroy anything he can get ahold of. Other than that I am a Physician Assistant and work for 2  Internal Medicine doctors. I guess that is about all you need to know :)
