Cara Group has loved running for many years.
“I ran track in high school and that was when I decided I really enjoy running,” she said. “I played tennis in college, but running distance came later when I thought it was going to be an inexpensive sport to participate in and stay in shape.”
Group started running 5K events and gradually increased her distance. She has now run 20 half-marathons.
“This year, 2021, was going to be my 21
st half-marathon, but I decided that since the race went virtual, I’m going to give it a go at completing my first full marathon,” she said.
