My story is a bit different than the typical ultra runner story. I grew up playing soccer, running cross country + track and field during my time in middle school and high school.
I’m Faye, 30, originally from England but I moved to Canada when I was 19. I have been living and working in the Bow Valley for the past 8 years. My sport is Running!
I grew up in the Bow Valley, mainly in Canmore. My mom and I would ride to school and to commute, and we went mountain biking as a family. I didn’t get into racing until later on when I joined the Rundle Mountain Cycling Club.
I grew up in Prince George, BC. My family was always really active outdoors and went on a lot of hiking and canoe trips in the summer and spent the winter cross country skiing.
