Runner
My career as a runner started on the track during my college years as a medical student. From there it was a natural progression to road running: from 5K to marathon distance. My first foray into trail running was in 2008, and have since competed in ultra-distance trail and skyrunning races throughout Europe and Australasia.
Personal Bests: Marathon 2:32; 10K: 32’
