Emily started running in third grade, running loops around her neighborhood with her mom to train for the local turkey trot. She went on to run cross country and track in junior high and high school. After starting college at Notre Dame, Emily wanted to continue competing so she tried out for crew. Emily competed on the rowing team for four years. She capped off her rowing career with her boat winning silver at the ACC championships. After graduation, Emily refocused her efforts on her love of running and immediately began training for her first marathon. Since then, she has run 8 of them. She recently moved to D.C. to pursue her Doctorate in Physical Therapy. With GRC, her goal is to train for a new personal best in the marathon and to enjoy the opportunity to run competitively with a team.
