WRC BIO

FAVORITE RACE EXPERIENCE:  Woodlands Twin Peaks 25k 2019. I loved the competition, the pull-no-punches course, and the fun, post-race atmosphere.

FAVORITE PLACE TO RUN: Roxy Ann Trails

FAVORITE POST-RUN EATS/DRINKS: The correct answer is, of course, Ruby's breakfast burritos.

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY DOING WHEN YOU’RE NOT RUNNING? I love reading, listening to podcasts, watching videos, and shows-and they will almost exclusively be running/endurance-related or science fiction. Also, making and eating new, fun food or desserts. Also, dance parties.

FAVORITE AID STATION FOOD: Hot chicken broth or grilled quesadillas

YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE SONG ON YOUR RUNNING PLAYLIST.  WHAT IS IT?  "Your Hand in Mine" by Explosions in the Sky

DREAM RACE OR RUNNING ADVENTURE There are so many. But Leadville 100 was my first dream race and is what I'll be actively working toward in the next couple of years.

CURRENT RUNNING KICKS? Trail: Hoka Speedgoat. Road: Brooks Ghost 13

WHAT DOES WOODLANDS RUNNING CO./WOW MEAN TO YOU? I initially joined Woodlands with a desire to share my love of running and appreciation for the beauty of the outdoors with like-minded people. However, I found that what I came to appreciate most about the community was not how similar we were, but how different! I tend to spend most of my time with people who are a lot like me. Woodlands is a weekly opportunity to share miles and stories with people who see and experience the world in a different way. Because of this, my view of the world has grown and become richer, fuller. Woodlands has given me a community that I didn't know I needed. I look forward to playing a part in seeing that community grow and include others, even others who don't know they need us yet :)
