Hey y'all! My name is Lilly Tinker (she/her) and I'm from Atlanta, Georgia! I'm a sophomore majoring in political science and have been running for almost 6 years. Apart from running I love to travel, explore in the outdoors, and dress up as a slug for the club halloween party. I can't wait to get to meet y'all and expand this lovely running community serving as your president. See ya out there!
Howdy, my name is Mitch Archer (he/him). I'm a sophomore majoring in History and minoring in French. I was born in Austin, Texas, the land of Buc-ee's and BBQ. My running journey started almost 10 years ago, and it has been an incredible experience. When I am not running, I enjoy exploring D.C., visiting the Smithsonian Museums, and cooking delicious meals at home. These are some of my favorite pastimes here in D.C., and when I am back home, I love relaxing outside with my cats and chickens. I can't wait to see y'all at practice and I am looking forward to serving as your vice president!
Hi everyone!! My name is Thara (she/her) and I am from Princeton, New Jersey. I am a sophomore majoring in political science with a public policy focus and minoring in economics and human services and social justice. I joined GW Club Running in the fall of my freshman year and have loved the experience ever since. I am so excited to be your treasurer this semester and run with everyone. Outside of running I love taking walks, reading, spending time with friends, singing and visiting museums.
Hey everyone! I'm Julia (she/her), and I am a sophomore from Massachusetts majoring in International Affairs with concentrations in gender and security policy. After dancing competitively for many years, I joined Club Running my first semester at GW. I love running all distances, and I'm currently training for my first marathon. Outside of running, you can find me exploring local bookstores and coffee shops, playing The New York Times games, or spending time with friends. I am looking forward to running with everyone and being Fundraising Director this semester!
Hey guys, I'm Amelia and I am the club's Social Chair! I am a junior studying Exercise Science with a Pre-PT concentration. I'm originally from right outside of Boston, MA and I've been running since my freshman year in high school. Besides running, I love to ride, bike, and cook soup (my favorite so far is chicken and gnocchi). I also work at Pacers (running store) on 14th street, so let me know if you need the latest on running shoes and the like. I'm super excited to get to know everyone and plan some super cool events!
Hello everyone, I'm Matthew (he/him), I am from Hershey, PA—yes like the candy town. I'm a Junior here at GW, studying Public Health and Emergency Health Services. The photo above? It's close to my heart. As a kid, Night at the Museum was one of my favorite movies and made me love history and storytelling. I would die to aimlessly wander an empty natural history museum effortlessly learning in immersive ways just like the movie. When I'm not out running, I'm either exploring new places or playing tennis with the club team on campus. I am super excited to be serving as your PR Director this year and look forward to engaging with you all in person and through social media.
Hey! I'm Michael (he/him) and I'm from Poughkeepsie, New York! I am currently a sophomore studying International Affairs, with a concentration in International Environmental Studies. I joined GW Club Running last winter and am so excited to be your secretary this semester! I am currently training for my first marathon in April. Outside of running, I enjoy hiking, adding movies to my letterboxd, and discovering new music (I currently have my own radio show with WRGW this semester!)
¡Hola! I'm Ismael (he/him) and I am from San Juan, Puerto Rico! I'm a Senior majoring in Political Science and minoring in Business. I started running two years ago and joined Club Running shortly after. You can usually find me doing repeats around Hains Point or getting some easy mileage around nature in Rock Creek Park. I've run four marathons already and as TPC my goal is to help as many people as possible run one! I would love to tell you all about my life outside of running but this is my whole personality and I hope that eventually it becomes yours too! I'm very excited to help the team train to crush all their goals this season.
Hi! My name is Miduo (she/her). I'm a freshman here majoring in International Affairs and minoring in GIS. I was born in D.C and grew up in North Potomac, Maryland, and I've run every street in my hometown! I'm also involved in Army ROTC, and in my free time, I'm probably working out at Lerner, going on random walks, or learning a new language.
Hiii! My name is McKenna (she/her) and I am from Massachusetts (not Boston though) and am majoring in Public Health. I have been running for 5 years now; my favorite parts of running are goofy community road races, exploring the city through new routes, and having a post-run coffee/brunch moment. When I'm not running you can find me baking, exploring DC, or doing anything outdoors if it's above 5o degrees. I am so excited to be one of your run captains for the upcoming year and to grow our running community!
Hey! My name is Setareh (she/her) and I am from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I'm a freshman majoring in business with a concentration in business economics and public policy. I have been running for 5 years now. And while I definitely love it, when I'm not running I love baking/cooking, going on walks to new places, exploring different farmers markets with friends, and catching up on sleep. I look forward to being a run captain this year and getting to know the team!
Hey everyone! My name is Katy (she/her) and I am from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. I'm a freshman majoring in data science with a concentration in biology: biodiversity and global change. I ran track and cross country in high school and fell in love with the sport! When I'm not running you can find me trying new coffee shops, exploring DC, or stalking my favorite running influencers. One of my running superstitions is eating a banana on race day, so, as you can see in this picture, I bought myself a beautiful pair of banana ChicknLegs shorts (complementary with the GW club running merch). I am so excited to be a run captain this year since I love meeting new people and connecting with the team!
