Aaron Schmidt
I won't bore you with an entire autobiography so let's get basic. I run a lot. I grew up and reside in the wonderful state of Iowa. I ran competitively in middle school. high school, and college. I took some time off and got back out on the open roads in the late summer of 2013. A bulk of my running is devoted to half marathons, marathons, and ultras, though I try to support the local community by racing in shorter distances. I also work at a shoe store where I specialize in running product. Some of my goals: run Boston, complete 100 miles, and become an RRCA certified running coach.
