Denise wasn't much of a runner growing up but she started running in 2008 after a friend dared her to run a 5K with him. Now she wants to share the joy that running had brought her, along with better health, stress relief and an addiction to finishers' medals. Over the years, Denise has compiled a list of the most unusual or interesting races — anything from running an underground 10K to eating a dozen Krispy Kreme donuts in five miles — a list that would eventually become "The Runner's Bucket List." She is still working her way through the list but her hope is that "The Runner's Bucket List" will inspire runners of all abilities to take on new challenges and to remember that running should be fun!
