\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\"joeselfie\"<\/strong>Joe B. Raymond III, Mississippi, 28<\/strong><\/p>\n

Profession:<\/strong> High School\/Middle School Band Director, Trombone player for the U.S. Army National Guard<\/p>\n

What inspired you to start doing races?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My fitness journey began like most people\u2019s journey, I decided I needed to lose weight.\u00a0 I began running in the fall of 2011 and figured if I was running two to three miles a few times a week for recreational exercise then I should sign up for a local 5k. I picked out one that fit into my schedule a couple of weeks away and hit the pavement.\u00a0 I had a friend who had run a few 5ks and half marathons pull me along and keep me going during the race.<\/p>\n

Do you walk, run or run\/walk, swim, cycle, do obstacles?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love running.\u00a0 That\u2019s not to say that there isn\u2019t a little walking in\"joegoffie\" some of my races.<\/p>\n

What distances do you do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve run every distance up to 26.2, but I prefer the marathon distance.<\/p>\n

How many have you done?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have done 33 marathons and 17 half marathons.<\/p>\n

What do you feel is your greatest race accomplishment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finishing back to back marathons in Wisconsin and Michigan.\u00a0 The Mitten Challenge is when you complete the Wisconsin Marathon on Saturday and the Kalamazoo Marathon on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Favorite race and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The St. Jude Memphis Marathon, without question.\u00a0 I have participated in this event four years in a row, and plan to make it every year that I can.\u00a0 In the NYC Marathon there are 50,0\"joewithfriends\"00 people running for thousands different charities.\u00a0 In Memphis there are 25,000 people all running for the same incredible cause.\u00a0 The city opens their doors for runners during race weekends.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been lucky enough to tour St. Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital twice over the years and really had the chance to experience all that the race has to offer its participants.<\/p>\n

Do you travel for races?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Almost exclusively.\u00a0 Mississippi marathons are few and far between.<\/p>\n

Does your race schedule become expensive? How do you afford to make it happen?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I kept a running total of all race expenses in 2015. I ran a handful of local events, four half marathons, and 11 full marathons; including three Run Disney trips and managed to keep the cost for everything (registrations, travel, parking, hotel, food, expo purchases) to a surprisingly low $4,200.\u00a0 Less than $1,000 of that was total for race registrations. (Including the Dopey Challenge).\u00a0 The biggest key to running a lot of races at a relatively low cost is to take advantage of charity perks, hotel room sharing, and monitoring for deals and savings where you can in flights and travel.<\/p>\n

Must-have gear on race day:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Garmin watch, Sparkle Athletic Visor, Flip Belt (because who wants to carry their phone), and the GoPro to capture all the\"joeee\" fun.<\/p>\n

Weirdest place you’ve ever chafed:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m lucky enough to not face this battle often.\u00a0 I have had some trouble on my wrist though from the strap that connects to my selfie stick.\u00a0 You remember I run with the GoPro at all times.<\/p>\n

Do you prefer to run in warm weather or cold weather?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warm weather.\u00a0 Mississippi does not adequately prepare you to function in colder climates.<\/p>\n

Favorite pre-race meal\/snack:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Coffee & a Clif bar usually on race day.<\/p>\n

Worst experience during a race:<\/strong><\/p>\n

During the Little Rock Marathon in 2014 it was raining ice off and on, and temperatures were dropping fast.\u00a0 It was clear that worse weather was making its way through central Arkansas.\u00a0 We were told by volunteers at Mile 21 that the event was cancelled and that busses were coming to pick up runners.\u00a0 Most of us kept pushing forward toward the finish line because we had to get there anyway to gather our belongings.\u00a0 We were told that the finish line had been turned off and taken down, which was not the case.\u00a0 It was still fully functioning when we arrived.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most awesome moment you’ve ever had at a race:<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the 2016 Los Angeles Marathon I had the privilege of running as a Guide for a Blind Runner.\u00a0 He put his full trust in me to lead him across his hometown and reach his third marathon finish line.\u00a0 Finishing that race with him was incredible. Listening to him talk about his challenges in training and seeing how inspirational he was to the people around us is something that I will never forget.\u00a0 Every person that passed by told us how great it was to see him out there on the course.<\/p>\n

Your favorite part of participating in races:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Making people smile, whether they are runners or spectators.\u00a0 I\u2019m the runner that comes through the course yelling for the crowds to make more noise, and the one tries to learn about the runners around me on the road.\u00a0 We have nothing but time to kill.<\/p>\n

Do you wear costumes? If so, what’s been your favorite?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have occasionally dabbled in some variations of costumes.\u00a0 Usually nothing extravagant.\u00a0 My favorite is Waldo.\u00a0 This is my go to outfit for the Mississippi Blues Marathon each year.\u00a0 Constant shout outs across the course keep it fun. \u201cThere you are! I found you! I\u2019ve been looking for you!\u201d I always tell them that I got there as fast as I could.\"joewaldo\"<\/p>\n

How important are awesome medals to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At one point early in my running they were incredibly important.\u00a0 I wanted the big medals and the pretty medals.\u00a0 I was picking races based on how great their medals looked. Over the last couple of years that has changed, and now I\u2019m picking races based on how great they are organized and how many of running friends will be around.\u00a0 A great looking medal is just icing on the already epic cake.<\/p>\n

Best medal you’ve earned so far:<\/strong>\"joemedal\"<\/p>\n

I have a lot of really great medals but my favorites are from the Louisiana Marathon in Baton Rouge.\u00a0 They do a great job of making them colorful and tie in to the theme of running in Bayou Country of Southern Louisiana.<\/p>\n

Do you prefer to run alone or with a buddy?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most of my runs are out by myself, however I prefer group running.<\/p>\n

Favorite song on your playlist:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mickey Miles Podcast. Always fresh, always reliable, and always entertaining.\u00a0 Music is my life and career, but I\u2019m not a music runner.<\/p>\n

Who is your race hero and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love watching Shalane Flanagan run.\u00a0 On the elite level she\u2019s an incredible ambassador for the sport.\u00a0 Getting to see her up close running by at the Olympic Trials in Los Angeles was an incredible experience.<\/p>\n

What is the top race on your bucket list<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Berlin Marathon. I want to run all six of the world majors at some point, but Berlin looks like such a great race year after year that I have been trying to get there for a while.<\/p>\n

Your advice for others who might be intimidated by signing up for a race:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Find something that fits into your comfort zone, however small or big that may be.\u00a0 If it\u2019s signing up for a local 5k with a friend or jumping into a half marathon across country by yourself.\u00a0 If you find the right race that has a clear mission that speaks to you \"joeselfie3\"then don\u2019t let the intimidation of other runners hold you back.\u00a0 Every race I run is about me being better than I was yesterday, not necessarily faster than I was yesterday, or faster than anyone else is on that day.<\/p>\n
