Kristen Dunn
VRC Ambassador
My name is Kristen and I am from Boston. I started my fitness journey in January 2015 and began running when I met my husband in 2016. He was a runner and I thought running with him was a great way to spend time together rather than going out to dinner or to the movies. After my first 5K race, I was hooked! I love the feeling after a run knowing I just accomplished a goal. I ran my first 10 Miler in March 2017, and my first half marathon in October 2018. I have run Spartan races and many other local races since 2016. My goal (and dream!) is to run a marathon.
My motto is: be a doer, not a dreamer. You have to put in the work to see results. When it’s 4:30 am and I’m running on the treadmill, I’m thinking I cannot wait until it’s over. I’m also thinking about the coffee I’m going to drink when my run is over. But I love seeing the results, so that helps me push through my run.
