About John
Biography
I am an avid runner. I have run several marathons and a few ultramarathons. This fall I will be competing in the New York City Marathon and the Philadelphia Marathon and I hope to take a shot at the Leadville 100 Trail Run in Leadville, Colorado this coming August. If you want a lawyer that can go the distance, I am your man!
