I moved to Seattle about two and half years ago from France and ran my first half marathon ever just a month after I arrived. I was set to be an avid runner in Seattle!

I started running in January 2016 and have been constantly setting new challenges for myself since then. What I love the most about running is the community I get to be part of. I have met the best people and now friends thanks to running and on top of that, I get to stay in shape. It also helps me mentally to overcome any difficulties like when I can’t see my family and friends back in France for multiple months. My challenge for 2019? My first marathon or a 50 km trail run!

When I am not running, you can find me on the slopes skiing or snowboarding in the winter time. Yoga, hiking, backpacking, camping and biking are also some of my favorites activities.

Note: The little guy on the photo is our little Maple and we also have a french cat named Gus!
