A Word from Corrine Malclom
I believe science should be for everyone, including the trail and ultrarunning community, independent of background, skill level, or years in the sport. My personal interests include trail and ultrarunning, climbing, nordic skiing, baking cookies, forcing my husband to listen to me read aloud, and chasing my dog, Petey.
