  • Heather joins the ranks of mothers around the world who are finding their athletic potential after having a child. After graduating as conference champion in both track and cross country with academic All-American honors from Alderson Broaddus college in Philippi, WV, Heather has found her running moments very recently. Personal best time this spring on the track saw Heather bring her 5000m best time down to 16:48 this past April 2016. A running and nutrition enthusiast, Heather continues while training to attempt her long term dream to qualify for the 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials.

  • Besides playing tag in the backyard, Kelly's first running memories come from middle school sprints, hurdles, and field events. Fast forward to college and she developed into distance-running nerd! A recent grad from WVU, she couldn't see herself leaving the Morgantown area and giving up her running goals and dreams just yet. Kelly is in charge of all things media and social for Morgantown Running.

  • The diatetic internship at WVU brought Emily to Morgantown, as she joins us all the way from Wisconsin where she was born and raised, and also where she went to undergrad. Formerly a collegiate runner, she is recently getting into training for a triathlon. A runner since the age of 12, Emily is naturally fit for our store and has the expertise to help find the right shoe for you!

  • Jenny developed a love for running in middle school when she began running. She ran middle school and high school cross country and track for Grafton. It was during her exchange in Brazil that she ran several 10ks and fell in love with road racing. Now, Jenny is a student at WVU and runs for the WVU running club!
