Runner Profile: Heather Haigh

Heather Haigh
Lock Haven, PA

Favorite kicks: Saucony

Pre-race ritual: Wake up. Run. Eat.

Pre-race snack: Anything that won't go right through me, haha!

Tips for new runners: Just do it. Make yourself go out. It's easy to come up with excuses not to get out there. Just do it, your body and brain will thank you.

Why she runs: I did not run, ever, until I was about 35. I could not run the mile in gym class, so I never believed I could do it. In my 30s, I taught with a friend who is an avid runner, and she invited me to a run/walk with an after-party. I had such a good time, I stuck with it!
