New Year, New Team!

I am absolutely ecstatic to announce that I will be part of the Seattle Running Club Brooks Team for 2015!

The selection was meaningful in many ways and I have a lot of people to thank. Seattle Running Club has been an important piece of my life since moving back to Seattle. Running is a huge part of my identity and SRC has been exactly what I needed in my transition. The community, positive energy, and trail focus are a few components of the club that simply can not be matched elsewhere. In the short time I have been a part of the club it has helped me to grow as a better runner and regain my focus in racing. Joining the Brooks Team is an honor and one step further in the direction of the competitive, well-rounded runner I strive to be.

Thanks to Eric Sach and my other co-workers at The Balanced Athlete who fuel my love for trail running and keep me in tune with all the latest gear and get-up. Thanks to Trisha Steidl who has a strong face in Seattle Running Club and will be leading the Brooks Team as the team manager. Thanks to my husband, who now has a superhero image in Seattle (at least through my eyes) and I can only strive to reach the heights he has by influencing the running community. I plan to represent the running community in the most positive and whole-hearted fashion. Here's to running happy in 2015!
