Hello! My name is Melissa. I was born and raised in Pasadena, California but I’ve lived in 4 different states in the last 5 years. Running has saved me physically and mentally, and has helped me quench my unending desire to explore this beautiful world 🙂 There’s nothing I love more than WANDERING around the new places I visit, whether I’m at 5000ft elevation in a National Park or trodding through the ordinary streets of my neighborhood.
After graduating from college at Lehigh University (where I majored in Economics), I became a public school math teacher in San Antonio, Texas. I lived there for two years before accepting a position at a nonprofit in DC! I now live in Alexandria, VA and work remotely most days. Running brings me so much joy in my everyday life, and I created this blog as a way to share it and my life with my friends and family.
