Cold resistant Canuck

Posted by YourRunning on 1/13/2007 on YourRunning's blog

Brad Feld and YourRunning are giving away an entry to the North Pole Marathon! Here's who has applied to run.

"I am cold resistant."

Veronica Savage

Toronto, Ontario

Running Experience:
Intermediate

Why should we pick you to go to the North Pole?:
Because completing this will help me to feel great about myself and I am one person who will TRULY enjoy the region. I am a strong communicator and good looking enough that I won't crack the video screen! I won't give up!

Offer some evidence that you can complete a marathon in harsh, sub-zero conditions at the North Pole:
I live in Canada and don't have a car - I am frequently in a rush!

Oh yeah, and I have run charity marathons in the past.

Tell us about your cold-weather race experience:
Um....see above? I live in Canada! I used to chase my friends around in Kirkland Lake and Moosenee. That's COLD!

I am cold resistant.

Tell us about your marathon experience, including times, results, etc.:
Sorry. I don't have that data. Perhaps after I run the North Pole I'll let you know.

What do you expect your North Pole Marathon time to be?:
20 hours

Can you write well? Explain:
I would use my blog as an opportunity to share my hopes and doubts and ultimately, my success. I know that it would act as an inspiration for other people who doubt their capabilities.

Tell us about your media experience:
I am very familiar with modern technology and would have no difficulty creating the required reports. I have been using digicams etc. since I was a kid!

Websites:
www.veronicasavage.com www.geocities.com/savagescorpio/index.html

Show us your video:
Not at the moment but I'll create one if you want me to.

Funny how often I am asked for a video of myself.......LOL
