When you think of the Capital Beltway, moving quickly does is not normally the first thing that comes to mind. Unless you are Susanna Sullivan. As a standout performer at George Mason High School in Falls Church, VA, she would garner All-State honors in both cross country and track, winning the Virginia State Championships in the 1600m and 3200. She would then go on to Notre Dame, and though she would be hampered by injuries, she still recorded personal bests of 16:56 for 5k and 36:13 for 10k, all while earning degrees…
My Favorite Quote:
NOW this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky,
And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back;
For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.
~ Rudyard Kipling

Thanks @RunProUSA for the shout-out! My very first marathon went about as well as I could have hoped for! https://t.co/rmuKJAKeZ8
