Interview with Sherri

 Hey guys! Here’s a special interview by one of our Co-Anchors, Vicky, with an awesome Lifehouse fan named Sherri! She did a half marathon event and got to see Lifehouse afterwards! 

——————————————————–

Q: What did you do to prepare for the marathon?

A: I used a training schedule by a guy named Hal Higdon.  He has some really good training programs.

Q: What was the biggest challenge you faced and overcame during this experience?

 A: For me, the biggest challenge is always mental.  My mind decides I need to give up long before my body does.

Q: Have you ever run a ½ or full marathon before?

A: I have run ½ marathons before

Q: What was the atmosphere like the day of the event?

 A: It was crazy!  I love the energy right before a race starts.

 Q: Did you have any lucky charms with you that day? 

A: I have a necklace that I always wear on big days.  It was given to me by my best friend who passed away a couple of yrs ago.

Q: How long did it take for you to complete the race & what number did you come in?

A: I am not sure what place I came in.  I wanted to complete it in under two hours, but it took me a little over two hours.  L  I was disappointed, but there will always be more opportunities to try again!

Q: Did you have the opportunity to talk to Lifehouse? If so, what was that experience like?

Anything you would like to share with the fans about that experience?

A: Yes, I was able to see them after the race.  It is always great to see them, they are so friendly.  I wish I would have thought to ask them to sign the T Shirt that you guys gave me.

 Q: What was your favorite part of the race? 

A: Seeing a 57 yr old blind man finish the race. Very emotional to say the least.

Q: Do you plan to continue training and running regularly now that the race is over? 

A: Yes.  It has been 3 yrs since my last half marathon…but Im baaaaack!

Q: When you and your hubby met the Lifehouse boys after the race, who in the room smelled the worst? The best? 

A: Hmmm..for the worst it would be a toss up between me and hubby (probably me!)  And I have no idea who smelled the best, because I couldn’t smell anything over my own stench!  lol

Q: What were you more nervous about, the race or talking to Lifehouse afterwards?

A: Ummm…talking to LH of course!  I have two goals in life…to finish a full marathon and to be able to talk to LH without nearly passing out.  I think I am more likely to achieve the first goal than the second.  haha

Q: Why did you only run a half marathon instead of a full one?

A: Well, I tried to run the half  marathon twice, but my entry fee only covered running it once.  Darn!  :)

Q: How did you hair look after the race was over?
