14. All the Race Recaps with Ashley Munro RDN

"I listened to the {Ali on the Run interview with Sarah Sellers after 2018 Boston Marathon}. I remember I was on a run, I was crying, and I was like...'I want to do that!"  Ashley Munro RDN is a dietitian based in Tuscon AZ. By day, she's an Instructor and Performance Dietitian the University of Arizona—where she recently developed the curriculum and programming for the first ever Weight Inclusive Certificate program for healthcare providers and healthcare students. But at 4:30 or 5am, she's a runner! (If you live in AZ, you know.)  Ashley recently ran the Eugene Marathon (2024), her fourth in just a couple of years. We connected to talk about all things running, as runners will do. We love sharing stories of runners who come to the sport in a variety of ways, and from a variety of sports (like dance and cheerleading, in this case!). And we love hearing how they find their way in training for big goals while building community, relationships, and time for themselves. Ashley's running story touches on all of the above!  To learn more about Lane 9 Project, visit us and/or get in touch via lane9project.org.
