Occupation: ER Nurse

Trail running is my yoga, my therapy. I do love competing but I have refused to let the seriousness of training take away my passion for the sport. This probably attests to my frequent ankle injuries in the past few yrs but when it comes down to it I just love hitting the trail and running until my mind is done thinking. I started off just wanting to finish an ultra race yet over the years I have grown to get a thrill out of the competition and seeing how I match up to the rest of the field. Most of the time humbling but good for the soul. I love most other outdoor sports such as mt biking, skiing, esp rock climbing. Though, these are my hobbies while trail running has become a necessity in my life.
Lifelong Running Goals: See how I match up to some of the runners out west while seeing how my body adjusts to the high altitude. Participate in races regionally and internationally. Participate and complete a 100 miler and in the end Western States. Threw my name in the lottery this year but no such luck. Also would love to do Tour du Mont Blanc. Go a full year without injuring my ankle!

Favorite Run: Mesa Trail at Chautaqua Park in Co; Prentice Cooper. There really is not a trail I have run that does not contribute to my overall growing passion for trail running. Each trail provides a different beauty that I cannot find many other places in life. So with that said, all trails are

pretty much my favorite.

What I Love Most About Running:

“There is a simplicity to trail running that you cannot really get with any other sport. You put your running shoes on, drive, or run to that special trail and go. A few seconds later you realize that all of the stresses and worries you had before are no longer there. It is just you and the trail… “
