Lisa Distasio

Hi, my name is Lisa and I am a native Floridian who lives in Weston, FL. I currently work in a law firm as a legal assistant and am a Certified Addiction Counselor. I have had the honor to either work or volunteer in the field of addictions for over 30 years. I have enjoyed and participated in many sports since childhood where my love of running began in high-school as a track and cross country runner. My marathon history began in 2002 training for my first of 3 Disney marathons, 2 Miami and 2 A1A along with 10 plus half marathons, numerous 5 and 10K runs/walks over the years. Due to injury I switch from running to cycling and century rides and back to walking. My first experience with FIT was as a member about 20 years ago for a short time. Then again 4 years ago as a member with the Weston team. At the end of the 2019 season Marcela asked if I would be interested in helping with the end of season as an assistant coach for the walkers in Coral Springs, I said yes and again for the 2020 season. This season I was asked to travel once again and will help as an assistant coach to the walkers in Ft. Lauderdale. I so enjoy the comradery of training and coaching with FIT and have made some wonderful friends along the way.
