Having an awesome time this week gearing up for the Nike Cross Nationals on Saturday - pumped to be part of the awesome team that makes this event happen. (And I might be a little jealous of these high schoolers who get to come run... #imisscrosscountry) ðŸ�ƒ‍♀ï¸�ðŸ�ƒ‍♂ï¸� #nxn #nikecrossnationals #crosscountry #xc #runpdx #runoregon #trailrunning #nike #runningonstarbucks #GiveGood #starbucks
