Jill Whitaker
After her mother's second cancer diagnosis, Jill made the pact with her mom to do "something big" once the cancer treatments were over. That "something big" ended up being a marathon. Upon finishing Jill knew that she wanted to feel that energy and excitement for the rest of her life.
Since then Jill has completed numerous races in varying distances, from 5K to marathons. She is a certified coach with the Road Runners Club of America (RRCA).
Jill enjoys trying various running products and reviewing them on her blog, JillWillRun.com. She keeps current with the latest research and developments in the running world, looking for ways to implement them into running programs to keep people strong and healthy.
She has been practicing yoga for more than a decade and is also an advocate for how yoga can help runners with both physical and mental aspects of the sport.
Jill's focus is on running for life, keeping yourself healthy to enjoy the sport for years to come.
