Hello! I’m Kayla and I live off H Street. I am originally from Tampa, Florida. I love running the Anacostia River Trail and Metropolitan Branch Trail in DC. I have my first ever half marathon next weekend up the C&O canal in Georgetown! After this race, I plan to continue running and signing up for more scenic races.  I run with Pacers for track and their social runs during the week.  Before I started training this past January, I only ever ran 5Ks and had done high school track & field.

 A funny running memory for me happened during the peak cherry blossom bloom this past March where I thought it was a good idea to run in the middle of the day through the Tidal Basin and Haines Point. I hope to never dodge and swerve through that many tourists again.

I look forward to joining an endorphins run and making new friends in the DC running community!
