Who she really is…
Lauren spends as much time as she can outside in the woods, especially hiking, canoeing, and running with her husband, two children, and black Labrador, Bella. The Adirondack mountains in NY, and the Harpers Ferry, WV area hold special places in her heart, and hiking the Appalachian Trail (a 2160-mile footpath extending from Maine to Georgia) is on her bucket list. After a several year hiatus, she is back to running, with 10K races as her favorite distance.
