Richmond, VA based VABION LLC, (VABION)

VABION LLC's (VABION) online athlete community, ThinkFastMoveFaster.com, is showcasing avid marathon runner Eissa Shively as its Featured Athlete of the Week. Eissa's love of running began when she was just 8 years old and has since inspired her to complete an amazing 17 marathons in just the last 8 years.

Inspired by her father, Shively has now been an active runner for over 20 years, continually pushing herself towards awe-inspiring accomplishments, including triathlons and marathons. She was determined to complete an Ironman triathlon by the age of 30. Through a combination of intense training and encouraging support from her coach, Ramon Bermo, Eissa completed her goal at the Ironman Florida 2008 in an amazing time of only 12:25:21.

Dr. Susan Hardwicke, chief executive of VABION, says "Eissa is a talented marathoner and triathlete, but what makes her even more unique is her kind spirit. She doesn't spent time bragging about her best marathon time records, she is dedicated to helping newbie runners experience the joys of marathon running and training. I'm pleased to feature this dedicated marathoner and triathlete on our site."

ThinkFastMoveFaster.com selects featured athletes based on their commitment to fitness, their sport and positive character qualities. Eissa's commitment is displayed by her favorite training quote: "If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon" (Emil Zatopek). It was this kind of determination that propelled Shively to complete the Ironman challenge and to raise over $15,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society over five seasons through her work with Team in Training (TNT).
