I’m Coach Smathers and I’m so excited to have the WeRock program here on our campus. As it will be the first year for all of us here at LFMS, I am looking forward to this new running adventure. I know that this season will be challenging as we all run together towards the goal of completing 26.2 miles. I am excited for all the new friendships to be formed and delighted to be a part of this journey.

It’s Always Fun to Hear a Coach’s Race History!

I started running again in 2010 and I’ve completed numerous races from 5K to 60K distances, as well as, many triathlons along the way. I love running by water, it’s so calming, so of course, the most scenic of my runs was the Catalina Island Marathon. My favorite race experience has been the St. George Marathon alongside my daughter, nothing like the joys of running with your family!
