Sarah recently competed in the Two Rivers Half Marathon. She trained hard even when work, commitments, and being a mom could have given her numerous reasons to just throw in the towel. She persevered and had a solid build, and on race day she had a huge 15-minute half marathon PR! We are so proud of her commitment and dedication. We cannot wait to see how she does throughout the rest of race season.
“I’ve trained on my own and with friends the past few years but with becoming more serious in the events I’m choosing to participate in, decided it was time to get real help. Joining Rise Up Racing was the best decision I’ve made in 2023. Coach Robin has been a HUGE help in encouraging me to get out every day and get my workouts done. Every time I get out there, I’m seeing some sort of progress – even if it is just starting the workout when I really want to go back to bed. I found out that doing it for myself wasn’t enough; doing it for coach Robin makes me push harder, longer, and faster in each workout and race. Getting to know the team members and having those people cheer you on on race day is also a huge motivator (the mini cheer squad is great with their cow bells). I can’t wait for the team rides and runs this summer and our next team race!”
