"The sun always comes up. No matter what, no matter how dark it was, no matter how grim everything seemed, no matter how alone I felt… The sun is always my beacon of hope."

In this conversation, we're catching up with the Utah-based "Hungry Runner Girl," covering everything from her newfound love for trail running and racing (this summer, she ran and won El Vaquero Loco 31K!) to regrets and reflections on the blogging days of the early aughts.
