Carrie Alajoki and Rachel Barger are two of our 2024 Grambassadors, selected from a large group of applicants to share their passion and knowledge of our race weekend.
Both Alajoki and Barger have participated in a Grandma's Marathon weekend event 10+ times in their running careers, and together they joined the podcast to encourage the "non-traditional" or "back-of-the-pack" participants.
Running, even marathoning, can be for everyone if it's something you want to do in your life. Alajoki and Barger share their experiences getting into running and now being multiple-time full marathon finishers.
