JANUARY RUNNER OF THE MONTH
BRIDGET BOYNTON
If you had a conversation with Bridget about running, you would probably never know how hard she works and how good she really is. Bridget is very humble about her running, but she has a lot of talent and is very competitive. Bridget started with Team in Training about two years ago. She became hooked on long distance running and decided to join Without Limits Running. Her goal was to break 4 hours in the Nashville Marathon. The morning of the race called for hot and windy conditions which was going to make it very tough for her. She pushed though it and smashed her goal with a time of 3:47:59, a 26 minute PR! This year we set a new goal to qualify for Boston at Richmond. Bridget's training regimen and hard work allowed her potential to spill out as she crushed the qualifying cutoff by 4 minutes running a 3:36:00. That is 11 minutes better in less than 7 months.
