A little bit ago, I had an interview with Croft Edwards about LEADERSHIP. Croft blogs about leadership, and was interested in what happens at our marathon. Seems it’s pretty easy to look at our staff and recognize that LEADERSHIP IS HAPPENING!

There will be some pretty good blog entries coming up, but in the course of the interview he got me thinking about the world’s coolest marathon staff.

If you’ve run any of our events, you know that I’m really proud of every one of our staff members. They are ALL leaders. They have some great traits that make them that way:

• PASSION: Nearly every one of our staff members is a marathon runner. Ranging from one marathon to over 100, they love running marathons. That passion shows as we prepare for your marathon.
• CONFIDENCE: Setting and achieving big goals is a key to building confidence. These people personify that! They’re accomplished not only in their running, but most are successful in their careers and businesses as well.
• WILLINGNESS: From top to bottom, everyone is ready and willing to get his or her hands dirty. We lead by example, jumping in where ever needed.

I’m not going to spend the day writing about them, but I could. Everyone on our staff is amazing. I love these people. They are awesome! Over the summer, I’ll share some of the staff stories with you.
