Connect and Rise with Linda, athlete, runner, outdoor enthusiast, wife and mom. Linda describes her running journey and the challenges of balancing taking care of herself/following her passions with her responsibilities as a wife, mom and educator. She poignantly shares that we can’t inspire our children if we never pursue our own dreams. Linda also discusses how we can all work to make the running community more welcoming and inclusive. She shares that love changes everything because it helps us to shift our perspective. Often what matters most is the way we perceive what’s going on in our lives and the world. When look at life through the lens of love, we see things differently. Linda encourages all women to believe in the power of consistency and perseverance, which can help each of us accomplish more than we ever imagined.
