Hey team - I’m Rachel, 31 and Williamsburg based for the last 5 years. I’ve always been a recreational runner - I grew up in Wyoming and went to school in Bellingham, WA where I got into trail running and sprint/Olympic triathlons.
I qualified for the nyc marathon via 9+1 in 2019 and struggled to get back to it after the nyc half and marathon were canceled. I rolled to 2022 and had a fucking awesome race after struggling with an injury early on. I’m fairly sure I’m hooked now and after training solo for the last few months am excited to connect with you all IRL for the next ones.
Currently fighting post-marathon blues by eating my weight in incredible food in South Korea 🇰🇷 On my layover in Istanbul I met some fellow nyc marathon finishers from Greece - that endorphin kick that we get through this connection is REAL and powerful so happy to be here with you all. Excited to get back out there and connect with more bk based and nyc based runners!
