"I started running around the age of 9 or 10. My dad certainly inspired my twin brother, Matthew, and me to start running early on. Matthew ran cross country through high school, but it wasn't until I moved to Boulder, Colorado, in 2014 for school that I started pursuing running more seriously. While Matthew was running cross country, I was playing percussion in the school band."
