Darcy Budworth, Founder of TAKE THE BRIDGE™, is an all-around bada$$ athlete, interior designer full-time, and a figure in the running community who creates a safe space for running to be accessed, competitive, and fun. It's important to chase aggressive goals with others doing the same but to keep training fun and varied. TAKE THE BRIDGE™ allows runners from all walks of life to run across bridges throughout various cities and race within their local communities together in unsanctioned races with unparalleled energy to any road race there ever was, IMO. I'm excited to jump into the next TTB race here on the West Coast! If you're in NYC or Paris, check out two of their races on the calendar. Join some speedy, fast, fun friends in the community we're all part of and the sport we all love!

Krystle has been in two of the Runwithalli® Group Challenges so far, moving into the Faster 10K challenge from the Faster Mile as her first and the Faster 5K as her second.

She is a new(ish) runner with a long-term goal of running for health and completing an Ultramarathon someday. We're working on building endurance while keeping training varied and fun, with a great community of other women chasing goals similar to Krystle's!

Fun fact: I connected with Krystle on the Gram and have been in touch with her for a while, chatting about all the running things. Watching her blossom, accomplishing goals she never thought she'd achieve, let alone set out to do, has been inspiring. I'm excited to see what she conquers next!

Krystle - it's been an HONOR to have you on the show! We have SUCH great things to look forward to, and I know this episode will inspire many others to do hard things, chase challenging goals, and train smarter to get them!
