Where are you from and how does that affect who you are today? I grew up on Long Island, in a Revolutionary War town, and I have always loved the history of the town. When I'm training for races, I'll sometimes drive out to my hometown to do long runs as a moment of reflection and appreciation of where I've come from.
Describe yourself in one sentence: OHHH . . . this is a hard one! I am a designer by day, race director by night, and in my in-between time, explore and have adventures outside as much as possible!
Life motto? DTRT. My dad used to say this to my brother and me growing up. At the end of the day DTRT. Do The Right Thing. I also like, Be Better Ever Day. A smile a day keeps the bad things away.
Describe yourself in one sentence: I am optimistic, driven, and will do my best to convince you to join me in a sweaty pursuit. Where are you from and how does that influence who you are today? I am originally from Sonoma, CA. I have a strong appreciation for both nature and wine and prefer to enjoy both together.
Describe yourself in a one-sentence bio. Hi, my name is Leah and I’m a wife, daughter, friend, employee, and lifelong lover of pizza.
What are your secrets to success? Meditation and surrounding myself with positive people. I also try to stay organized with a daily task list and I use a different emoji each day to check off tasks. My dog also keeps me very scheduled as she nudges me when it’s time to go run every day, and on the dot at mealtimes.
Describe yourself in one sentence: A maven who sees the world as one interconnected place, where there is an opportunity to partner for mutually beneficial purposes. *Photo credit: @jzsnapz (Johnny Zhang)

What has been your biggest challenge in life? I have had a few big challenges in my life (COVID is certainly one of them) but they all have a common theme: learn to accept plan B, it might turn out better than you think.
