5 Things About Me: Megan Moye

1. I’m getting married this September 2nd to the most amazing man.
2. I’m a follower and strong believer of Jesus Christ.
3. I love Christmas time. It’s my favorite holiday. I’m that person that starts listening to Christmas music in October.
4. I love making coffee or going out to coffee shops. I get excited before I go to bed because I can’t wait to have coffee in the morning.
5. I saw Hunger Games 7 times in the theaters when it came out. A few of those times were at a $2 dollar theater (The cheap prices fueled my addiction)

5 Fast Questions

1. What actor would play the movie version of you? Jennifer Lawrence, but with her Katniss Everdeen personality. I was obsessed with the Hunger Games for a while at the beginning of college.
2. What did you want to be when you grew up? An Ice Skater: I never really ice skated that often (nor was I good at it) but I remember watching the winter Olympics with my mom when I was little and seeing the ice skaters. I thought they were so pretty in their sparkly outfits. They also got stuffed animals when they would finish and I wanted one. As I got older and more realistic, I wanted to be a veterinarian. However, once I realized it required 2 semesters of organic chemistry, as well as extra school, I decided to just own a lot of dogs instead.
3. Favorite post-run drink or snack? Watermelon or Promise Land chocolate milk (best chocolate milk hands down)
4. What was your AIM screenname? pinkpiggies242 (I loved pigs growing up)
5. If you had a “walk up” song as you approached the starting line, what would it be? My fiancé free styling to a beat.
