We are excited to feature Maureen Bodkin - Former No Boundaries II Mentor and brand new 10K Training Program Coach!
"I have been an avid runner since college. In the early years I ran to stay in shape. After having my 4 kids, I became interested in races. This picture is of me and one of my brothers, Brian at my first marathon- Dupont Trail , NC 2005. He had already completed one marathon and encourage me to join him for his next race. He said- if you can run a 10k, you can run a half marathon. If you can run a half, you can run a full marathon.....you all know how this goes!!!"
