The Team

My name is Courtney. I have been running “long distance” since I was 19. It all started when I was out for one of my thirty minute jogs as part of my soccer training… I realized, after what seemed like the usual thirty minutes, I had actually looped around, back to my house, making it a two hour run. I must have zoned out and my body just did, what I believe, it was meant to do. Ever since that summer day in 2008, my short runs became long runs. I shortly after I ran a road half marathon at the age of 19... and from there my distance has only grown… I ran my first road marathon when I was 20. After returning home from some traveling I was introduced to trail running… the road had lost it's excitement. I signed up and ran my first 50k when I was 24. It was the hardest thing I had ever done and as soon as I crossed the finish line I knew I needed to go farther. When I heard that Gary Robins was planning to have a 50/50 the following year (where you run 50miles day 1 and 50kms day 2) I instantly decided I was going to do that. Since my first 50k, at the age of 24, I have expanded my distances to 250+km races. Traveling around the world completing multi day stage races of 7 days, 100km races, many 50 milers and more. Pushing myself to extremes that most others find hard to understand is what I strive for. I am and will forever be fascinated by my ability to see no limits.
Trails have given something to me that roads never did, steep never ending hills, rocks, roots, mud and bigger leg muscles! My goal is to inspire other people with what I do. Change lives and make a difference: indent the world in some way.

I am a momma of 2! I am doing the impossible, I am following my dreams, teaching my babies to do the same while making all the snacks, changing all the diapers and everything in between. When I am not changing diapers or playing outside you can find me running with my stroller, training, lifting weights at the gym, working on climbing mountains while carrying a little human and swimming with my little fish!

I am a strong believer in following your heart and living through your passions which is how I live my life. Its simple for me, I love to help and encourage others to do the same. I have the most amazing job, it’s the greatest feeling to be constantly surrounded by others who share the same passions as I do!
