As a full time mother, business owner, writer, athlete, and Creighton University professor, I have several projects that keep me busy. Here's where you'll see my voice in other places and why that's pretty rad.
My role in the endurance sports world has given me unique opportunities in the press. In February 2011 I was featured in a
Spartan Race video about overcoming adversity, and shortly thereafter signed on to work as a consultant for the growing company. I was featured in two books as a contributor in 2012:
Obstacle Race Training Bible: The #1 Resource to Prepare for and Conquer Any Course! and
Ultimate Obstacle Race Training: Crush the World's Toughest Courses. I've enjoyed the chance to work in such an exciting and emerging industry.
Since 2011 I have been featured in a
Disney XD mini-documentary. I've been quoted in several newspapers and magazines including Outside Magazine, Marie Claire, Oxygen, Women's Health,
Omaha World Herald,
Huffington Post, Runner's World, and even had a cameo on Sports Center.

Spartan Race. An international obstacle racing company where trail running meets obstacle course that challenges the most practiced endurance athlete but also provides a unique racing opportunity for anyone willing to come out, push themselves and find their finish line. We expect close to a million athletes in 2013 and over 60 events. When I began with Spartan there were only 20,000 fans, now there well over 2.5 million.
Spartan Chicked - I am the founder and one of the originating members of Spartan Chicked. It's a movement born in the
Spartan Race arena dedicated to female endurance athletes and enthusiasts that promotes health, well-being, and participation in endurance sports. "Chicking" a term used in the racing world where a woman passes a man encourages women to find and pursue their best selves and maybe even pass a few boys along the way. With networking, encouragement, and community we are bringing thousands of women together and showing them what they are capable of accomplishing.
