Meet Your Half-Marathon Pacers


Trenton Vickrey - 1:40 Half

Image
I'm Trenton Vickrey, an avid runner with a passion for pushing boundaries. Over the past year, I've completed 8 half marathons, 1 full marathon, and 3 ultra marathons. As a middle school Physical Education and Health teacher, I enjoy motivating others to surpass their limits.
I love many different forms of exercise, with running and indoor rock climbing being my favorites. I can’t wait to meet fellow runners and assist them in achieving their goal of running just under 1:40 for the half. 

Kettie Mothersead - 2:10 Half

Kettie Mothersead here.  Ready to help any and all runners achieve their race goals. 2:10 is a great pace for a half and I will be with you every step of the way.
 
My running background is extensive, if interested, we will have 2 hours to chat about it.  I've run many marathons, half marathons and also have dabbled in triathlons. Most races have taken me all over the world which I love to explore!! I have met the most amazing and inspiring people through running and will continue to do so for as long as I can. I've been pacing for over 2 years now and love that feeling of helping people achieve goals and dreams of their own.
 
Outside of running, I'm married and have 3 adult children. All very active in sports of their own.  I coach Cross Country and Track at Avon Middle School North and I decided to make my first retirement gig driving a school bus.  Wish me well!! We have two small dogs which keep us busy and partially sane. And we love to brag about our grand cat and dog!!  LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH!!
 
Here's hoping to meet you on race day!!  Let's make dreams happen together!!!

Sandi Guglielmi - 2:20 Half

Image
My name is Sandi Guglielmi and I've been running for 10 years.   I have completed countless 5K and 10K races, 132 half marathons, 1 full marathon, 1 50 mile ultra-marathon and just finished a road Ragnar.  I've paced countless races because I truly enjoy helping people achieve their goals by reaching their goal finish line.

Elizabeth Evans - 2:25 Half

Hi! I’m Elizabeth, and I am beyond excited to be your pacer for the 2:25:00 group! This
is my first time officially pacing a race, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to give back to
the running community. While my personal record is 1:53:37, my goal for this race is
helping you reach your finish line with a smile. On race day, I’ll be 10 weeks into my
own training for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon, where I’m chasing a
Boston Marathon qualifying time!


My Strategy
I’m all about precision and a stress-free experience. I’ll be using the Runna app
synced with my Garmin to keep us locked in. My strategy is to maintain a steady 10:55
per mile running pace, which allows us the time to walk through every aid station
while still hitting our 2:25:00 goal. We’ll take a purposeful power-walk to hydrate and
reset, then move right back into our rhythm.


My Motivation
Running 13.1 miles is a mental game, and I’ll be your biggest cheerleader the whole
way. When the miles start to feel long, we’ll lean on my 2 favorite mantras: 'You can do
hard things’ and ‘You’ve survived every hard thing you’ve ever experienced.’
Whether this is your first race or a major comeback, I can’t wait to help you prove to
yourself exactly what you're capable of. Let’s do this!

I am a recent transplant to Indiana (my husband had a job relocation) from Southern California. I am, at my core, a cyclist that loves running. I have been cycling and running most of my life. I owned a fitness studio, I’m a hill climbing (cycling) coach, personal trainer, corrective specialist, sports specific nutrition coach and weight loss specialist.

Kristen Bruna - 2:40 Half

Hi, my name is Kristen Bruna and I am grateful to have the opportunity to pace this awesome race. I started my running journey in 2020 when the world shut down and I felt that the only thing I had control over was myself. Since then I have gone on to run many 5ks, half’s, and 3 marathons. I love to run from both the health benefits as well as the social aspects, especially when I get to travel to different states with my running friends as we work through the 50 states challenge!

I am Prabu Selvaraju. Started long-distance running in 2022, I completed my first official marathon at Back Your Badge in 2023. Since then, I’ve finished 29 half marathons and 2 full marathons. What began as a journey for physical fitness has grown into a true passion. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve as a pacer at this awesome race where my running journey began, and I look forward to helping fellow runners achieve their goals with confidence and consistency.


Brittany Goldberg - 3:00 Half

I started running 3 years ago to train for my first Half Marathon.  I fell in love with that accomplishment you feel when crossing the finish line! This race will be my 10th half marathon! I love pacing because I love the company and uplifting others to reach their goals. I am apart of a wonderful group of ladies in my local She Runs This Town chapter. I'm also a mother of 4 and a big Kentucky Wildcat fan! Can't wait to run with you all!
