Meet Azusa Pacers Founder/President: Maria Delgadillo
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WITH THE PACERS? I joined the Pacers in the fall of 2017.
WHY DID YOU JOIN OUR AMAZING CLUB? Because my friend knew that my goal was to run a full marathon and told me that the Pacers were going to start their marathon training.
TELL US ABOUT AN AMAZING PACER MEMORY: A memory that I will forever cherish in my heart, was finally running my very first L.A. Marathon, and all the love & cheers I received at MILE 20 from the Pacer family. It was so emotional & so very special. I still get tears thinking about it.
WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE BEST THING ABOUT THE PACERS? The friendships developed. It goes beyond being a running club, it’s the people you meet, they quickly become part of your family.
TELL THE FOLKS WHY THEY SHOULD START RUNNING: Take it from me, running was not my thing, I was not a runner, I couldn’t even run a mile! Seeing my friends run, motivated me to start running, so if I can, SO CAN YOU!
LONGEST DISTANCE: 26.2
AVERAGE PACE: 9.5 min
