Hi! My name is Jess and I'm a 25-year-old living in Washington D.C. I'm a runner and love to train for races of all distances, although the half marathon is my favorite. This year, I'm tackling a new fitness challenge and branching out into triathlons.
I've been running and racing for almost six years now and decided it was time to mix up my training by adding in some swimming and biking. I was on swim team in high school so I have experience in the pool, but I haven't ridden a bike since I was about 10 years old. Learning to master my new road bike has been an interesting challenge, but I'm having fun with it.
Feel free to follow along with my training on my blog jessruns.com.
