Dr. Sophie McDonald is a local sports chiropractor and the owner of United Sport Solutions. When she isn't helping people get back to their full potential through chiropractic care, she can be found on the trails, enjoying the quiet time and getting lost in the woods. After competing collegiately in cross country and track and field, Dr. Sophie channeled her athletic energy into ultramarathon running. She has competed at distances ranging from 50k to 100 miles. She most recently rounded out a season of podium finishes with a first place finish at the Laurel Highlands 70.5 Miler in 2023. Other notable races in her resume include the Grindstone 100 Miler, the Burning River 100 Miler, and the TransRockies Stage Race.
