Third time's a charm for Kat Van Orden(we hope!). She is a self proclaimed newbie of trail running while showing the results of a seasoned champ. Kat got the victory at the 2023 Frozen Toe trail race immediately followed up by an injury she is very familiar with. She now navigates coming back from not one, not two but three ACL reconstruction surgeries at the age of 25. But she isn't letting it diminish her optimistic outlook. She's a coach, fitness addict and lover of all things outdoors. After graduating from Roanoke College she said goodbye to the beach and hello to the beautiful Blue Ridge which she now calls her permanent home. She undoubtedly has a future of excitement!
