1:40 PACE TEAM

Molly Woodford
Age- 22
Hometown- Waukesha, WI
Running Experience- I ran throughout high school and then competed for UW-Eau Claire for four years.  I am now figuring out, through trial and error, how to coach myself and compete in triathlons. 

Memorable running moment- Running a 10k under the lights.
Favorite Running shoe: Brooks Launch
Favorite color: Yellow
Favorite food: Cheese
Favorite band/Singer: Paul Simon
Interesting fact about me:  I have never had a cavity.  (flouride is my friend!)

Adam Coyer
Age- 27
Hometown- Nekoosa, WI (the Fightin' Papermakers)

Running Experience- I ran cross country and track and field in high school.  Competed two seasons at UW-Oshkosh before suffering a significant back injury in 2004.  I have since run a dozen half marathons (personal best 1:19) two ultra marathons, and one marathon (Austin marathon 3:17)  and many other races of all distances.  I also coach cross country and track and field at Watertown High school. 
Favorite race- Ragnar Relay (formerly the MC200)
Memorable running moment- 2010 Fox Cities half marathon.  This was the first race after my grandmother died, and all of my training came together for an unbelievable race.  Maintained a pace I didn't think was manageable.  For the first time I didn't hit the wall and finished with pride and pain.  Following this race, I decided it was time to train for a marathon. 
Favorite Running shoe: Saucony Kinvara
Why you chose to be a pacer: I enjoyed the race last year, and wanted to give back to the running community. 
Favorite color: Orange
Favorite food: Mexican
Favorite band: Queen
Interesting fact about me: I sign up for races even if I haven't trained for them.  I made the mistake by signing up for two races on the same day.  I ran the Madison half marathon that I ran in the morning.  Then drove to Brookfield and ran the Hillside hawk 5k later in the afternoon.  Since I had a weekend free, I decided to sign up for the glacial trail 50k.  I had so much fun I decided to sign up for the following year.
