5 Things About Me: Emily Lipari

1. I still get carded for rated R movies (I’m 24). Small people problems.
2. I love painting my nails. I free hand my own designs and try to keep them seasonal and festive! I often get asked if my nails are real and I can confirm they are!
3. I grew up on Long Island, but my favorite choice of music is country.
4. My ideal Friday night would be having a glass of wine while playing settlers of Catan.
5. I love cats.

5 Fast Questions

1. What actor would play the movie version of you? Masie Williams. I love her as aria starke. I like to think she would capture my spunky side.
2. What did you want to be when you grew up? I was one of those kids that always wanted to be a vet because they loved animals. Then as I got older I was so sad to see that vets only see sick animals and don’t get to play with them all day.
3. Favorite post-run drink or snack? Post race I’m always craving a bacon cheeseburger.
4. What was your AIM screenname? Unfortunately, KittyKixx9. Tried to combine this with my love for cats and soccer.
5. If you had a “walk up” song as you approached the starting line, what would it be? “Crushin’ it” by Brad Paisley
