Hi everyone! I am new to WeROCK this year and I am beyond excited for this journey with you all.

A little bit about myself: I am originally from Reno/Lake Tahoe, Nevada where I lived most of my life. During my years in middle and highschool I ran track and cross country and I learned that running was definitely one of my passions. My other passions include painting and cooking. I went to grad school in Oregon and am proud to say “Go Ducks!” (for any college football fans out there!). I have lived in SoCal for a couple years now, and started my career as a Speech-Language Pathologist in schools. My cousin has completed 5 marathons with WeROCK, (this year will be her 6th! wow!), and she introduced me to this group. Thank you Coach K for developing such an amazing opportunity for our youth and thank you for letting me be a part of it! I have never ran a marathon before so this experience will be one for the books! I know that I, along with all the kids and members of this team, are committed to bringing blood sweat and tears to the table in order to achieve our end goal: 26.2 miles. Yipee! See you all at the finish lines!
