Abi used to hate running. In fact, she'd go as far as say loathe. When she was a kid, she hid behind trees to get out of it. Fast-forward 17 years, and after making it through High School, Uni and three years in London fairly unscathed, she moved to Fernie BC. She moved there for one winter to ski, and discovered a whole lot more – and ironically, became hooked on running. She now says her friends and family back home are in shock, and she is pretty sure her mother still to this day thinks she's in some sort of endurance cult. Once she discovered trail races, she came in 1st place in her first 6 races.

April went from not being able to run 60 seconds to running the Chicago Marathon. When she was in the darkest place in her life she buckled down and got out the door. She didn’t know anything about running, she just wanted to have peace in her mind and to love life again, and she did! She is now 4 years in the game and loving what running has done for her and her life.
