David is a 28 year old graduate student at UMKC working on his masters degree in curriculum and instruction. After moving to Sitka, AK, David decided he wanted to run so he signed up for his first marathon. The experience left him disappointed with running and he decided he never wanted to run again. When he moved back to KC he changed his mind and starting running all the time. Ultras began to peak his interest and he focused on what his body needed in order to run high miles. This helped change his interest in running and he is now happier than ever getting lost deep in the woods on some wonderful single track.
Outreach: David leads a group run on Saturday mornings in Westport.
