Heather BlackmonUpdated August 2018 with the latest resources, tips & tricks.
Of all the sports and adventures I’ve enjoyed over the years, running continues to be my favorite. It’s the sport I’ve never stopped (for long), it was my cardio of choice (even when training for bikini competitions), and it helps me explore new cities when I travel. It requires minimal equipment, can be done anywhere, at any time, and helps prepare you for so many other active adventures.
