Spotlight Runner: Shannon Fisher

1. To start off, tell us a little about yourself outside of running: 

Well first off I am a mother of Jim and Patrick, also known in the running and trail community. I love running with them but it usually stops in the parking lot. Second I am grandmother of a very precious, highly intelligent, strong willed, beautiful granddaughter. Third I would like to be considered a good friend to some. In the past I have trained and shown horses, dogs and raised, shown Maine Coon Cats. My boys and I have traveled and shown in various venues in different events throughout the country. 

2. What brought you to running trails? 

My little yellow car brings me to the trails..... When I started running due to my children, I knew I needed help. I mostly was looking for help for Patrick who was starting track and the other parents on the track team told me to find outside help. Being from Medina , Roy Heger, Kim Martin, Tanya Cady, Connie Gardner were there to share their knowledge very generously. ...Geez, with those names how could I go wrong. The expertise I received in the beginning really helped avoid some pitfalls and really allowed the learning curve to swing up. I really remember these 4 having extreme patience with me at the top of many hills as I huffed and puffed. I was so lucky!
