Beth Richard

Taught PE & Adapted PE (students with various disabilities) in public & private school systems; Coached varsity (high-school) girls' sports; Taught swimming lessons; Lived abroad 8 yrs. as full-time missionary in Russia.

Came home from Russia in 2001 & eventually went back to teaching APE (same school system, same position). I work at 4 different schools, travel 30-50 miles & average 2-4 schools each day. Hopefully the pace will keep me young! My idea of a fun weekend is now staying around home & NOT running the roads!

Hobbies: Working out, long-distance cycling, outdoor sports, marathon dog-walking, etc... :-)

Enjoy travel & hope to return to Russia this summer for a visit. Speak Russian, so I'm always looking for Russian-speaking people around here...

I'm still wondering where all the years went...
I'm still pursuing some dreams from youth...
But for what it's worth, I have started jotting down notes for my "Bucket List".... Anyone else?
