Hannah Brown - 2024 Runner Stories

I’ve never liked running. I ran 2 half marathons, one in 2016, and the other in 2017, and I hated them. But I knew the lessons learned and habits developed in training were necessary to a life of discipline. After years of strength training and CrossFit in which I have absolutely loved doing, I needed to push myself out of my comfort zone again. I knew it was time for a marathon, and I knew the discipline of training would overflow into other areas of my life. I grew up outside of Cleveland, so it made sense to go back to my roots and do something that was uncomfortable. I’m nothing but excited!
