Tasha Clearman didn't discover running until she decided to run a marathon as a sophomore in college, but since then it has become one of her passions. With a preference for long distance events and trail races, she has currently run more marathons than any other race distance, although the 25K trail races come in for a close second. Besides running, she frequently performs as a violist with such venues as the Annapolis Symphony and the Peabody Conservatory and has been selected to perform at several international music festivals.
