Personal bio:
Running has always been my passion and my calm. I would often use it as a way to reconnect with nature or to take a break from my other sports like gymnastics. It was not until high school that I started to compete in running and always fell somewhere around mid-pack. I was always told you “peaked” young in running as a woman and so I never thought that in my 30’s, after having two kids, that I would become a front pack runner and continuing to get new PRs every year! I am excited to continue to build my progress and follow where my running journey takes me.
Goals:
Later this fall I am looking forward to running a full marathon again at Yeti Endurance weekend 2025, excited to put up a new time for that stat! Next spring, I am looking forward to the 2026 Heartland 39.3 Challenge and hoping to place well after a well-placed 30K Challenge in 2024.
