Alyx is a total badass! We dive deep into life as an athlete, fertility, and body image. She ran in high school and one semester of college, became a personal trainer out of college, and a fitness bodybuilder. She also did mma and boxing for a few years competitively, it was a great way to help pay rent while going to school. She competed in bodybuilding for a decade, until she got to the top of the sport professionally. She's now an ultrarunner and coach.

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.
