Hi everyone! My name is Stephanie Kara Jordan. I’ve been in the DC area for 19 years and am currently based in Eckington.

I started running again in 2021 after a long absence. It's been a fun challenge, and I want to improve my discipline and stay healthy.

I generally run 10ks but have been branching into longer distances. I ran the Rock and Roll Half Marathon for the first time in 2022. I broke my ankle two miles in but still finished the race! That was the day I learned how vital cross-training and mobility are when running, lol. I redeemed myself the following year.

I’m very excited to run the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler on Sunday. I’m planning on making an effort to run with you all soon!
