Refugee. Pharmacist. Fitness Enthusiast. I didn’t grow up as an athlete but I do believe all of us can become one.Case in point, my first “race” was the Taco Truck 5K and sparked my love for Running.(Will run for food).Since then, I have qualified for Boston, Chicago, and NYC Marathons, raced the Ragnar Relay, and summited Mt. Rainier.Ironman 70.3 is next on my bucket list!My goal every year is to challenge myself with something wellness-related that is terrifying.There is no better feeling than proving to yourself exactly what you are capable of.
