For Kayla, running has always been a part of her life, and has become more of a passion as she's gotten older. She went from a girl who used to think running a marathon was crazy, to recently qualifying for Boston. She is an early riser to get her miles in around her full time job as a Veterinary Technician. Whether its running with her dogs or out adventuring on a pathway solo, she always tries to makes the most of each run. She's always up for a challenge, and has learned that confidence doesn't always come easy, and since working with a running coach and getting older, it's become second nature to believe in herself. Originally from Colorado, she now lives in Virginia with her husband and dogs. . During our conversation we talk about her running journey, her most memorable races, her Boston qualifying journey, her experience working with a coach, what a typically week of training looks like and of course, what Chasing Life means to her. .
