🔥BEAT THE HEAT ATHLETE SHOWCASE🔥 ______ Our next athlete showcase is Crissa Thurman cthurm_44 from New Jersey who set some major personal bests in the marathon distance during 2019. Crissa completed the tough Boston Marathon layout in 2019 in 3:34 (a personal best) and followed it up in Chicago with another major personal best of 3:27. She will look to take her experience in the marathon with her to the shorter distances as she competes in the Women's Masters Division in Beat the Heat! ______ Marathon: 3:27 (Chicago 2019) ______ "Distance is definitely my strength but I also love the shorter distances. As a full time commuter into New York City and working mother I rarely had time for speed/track workouts, but since being home for four months these have become part of my weekly regimen". Crissa is excited for the knock out masters tournament as "It's going to be a completely new and exciting challenge for me on so many levels. I'm really looking forward to it!" _______ #runnersofin...
