Living Fit Alumni [former TEAM members]

  • Christine Loncaric – was a regular runner & blog contributor for years! She helped us train for many races and we got to witness lots of her PRs. She was our Instagram co-founder, giving us the push we needed to get it going! Sadly she moved to Cincinnati in 2018, but we hope to plan many destination races to keep in touch… starting with Flying Pig ’19!
  • Lan & Mahvish  – our running yogis! Lan & Mahvish were early regulars and helped us see the many benefits of yoga for runners. They’ve both since moved but we hope to run+yoga with them again someday!
  • Kathleen – fellow fitness enthusiast who enjoys running, yoga, Cross Fit & has a minor obsession with fashion (lululemon and Ann Taylor Loft to name a few). She’d be happy to test or review any product you throw her way! Kathleen ran her first half in 2012, was very active in helping us grow the Living Fit blog and trained with us for the Cap City half ’14.
