HEALTH CONDITION
She has been diagnosed with Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports [RED-S], a condition that has adverse effects on all bodily systems and can compromise long term health and performance. She has used her experience to mentor young female athletes through the organisation, 'Voice in Sport'. "I didn't start addressing these issues until I was already in the midst of injury in college, but unhealthy thoughts and habits were bubbling beneath the surface well before that. For so long the conversation was, 'More, more, train harder, get leaner!'. I think we still need to work on changing that message, particularly in the running community, focusing on gaining strength instead of losing weight, and getting that consistent, long, healthy career."
