Meet your Orange Blossom Half Marathon 3:00 Pacer, Mary!

“I began running in 2003 as a way to improve my mental health following a traumatic incident. I ran races casually for several years until I began running with my local running group, West Volusia Runners in 2017. From there, I have completed countless races, paced several half marathons, and now seeking to complete another 50k. I credit my running with helping me stay in remission from cancer and in balance while being a working mom!

I also enjoy triathlons, rock climbing, yoga, and OTF! I work as an appellate attorney as my day job and I Love Star Wars, Doctor Who, and Marvel.

Current PRs: 5k: 28:57 10k: 58:46 HM: 2:35 M: 6:15 50k: 8:30

Cool fact: I am also a pretty awesome BINGO caller”

Meet your Orange Blossom Half Marathon 2:45 Pacer, Candace!

“I've been running for 12 years and pacing for three. Some of the races I've had the pleasure of pacing are: Daytona Beach Half Marathon, Remarkable River 10k, Sharkbite Half Marathon, Mount Dora Half Marathon, Run Daytona 10k, and Lighthouse Loop Half Marathon.
I have run countless races including 15 half marathons, 2 full marathons and 1 50k. Running is an escape from stress and an opportunity to detach and gain perspective. I love racecations with my friends and I love helping fellow runners reach their goals! When I'm not running, I'm adding to and organizing my 700+ beer can collection, along with the help of my friends.”

Meet your Orange Blossom Half Marathon 2:15 Pacer, Joanne!

“I am a software engineer and mother, and originally from England. I ran a little before children but really got into running 5 years ago. The joy of slow miles with friends combined with the challenge of pushing through to achieve a goal makes running the perfect sport to me.
Half PR: 1:39
Marathon PR: 3:29
Favorite race: Broken track, because of the spectacular scenery!
Fun fact: I signed up for my first marathon 3 days prior to the race”

Meet your Orange Blossom Half Marathon 2:00 Pacer, David!

“I was born in a tuberculosis sanitarium in Loomis Liberty NY and moved to Florida 26 years ago. Running saved my life when it felt like everything else was falling apart and it helped me maintain a healthy and positive focus through any difficulty. When I run, I remember the people who are faced with a circumstance or disability prevent them from running, so I run for all the people who can't. That is my "why."
My current half marathon PR is 1:40:51, full marathon is 3:43:28, but my favorite race is the 5k because it's an intense effort that takes you into a peak state and gives you a healthy shot of adrenaline.
When I'm running, I give my all, and I never take the blessing to run for granted.”

Meet your Orange Blossom Half Marathon 1:45 pacer, Mark!

“I have been running for many many years, but believe it or not I have only done 2 whole marathons. I started running when I was 10 years old, sprinting. I went on to run the 400 and 400m hurdles for my university and county. I ran 49 seconds for the 400. I continued to run after I graduated and moved to road running when I came to the states 16 years ago. I never thought I would run further than a mile, but with some training I made it to 26.2. I currently train/run with the Lake Monroe Roadkillers, a great group of competitive guys and gals. Pacing brings me joy, the adrenaline of helping someone fight and reach their goals is exhilarating.”
