Jen ran her first marathon in 1994 as a senior at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, decked out in a Champion sweatshirt and cotton socks! She rediscovered her passion for running during COVID and started running half-marathons and marathons to celebrate turning fifty. She completed the 2022 TCS NY Marathon and had a blast in the 2023 Bank of America Chicago Marathon. Support Jen and  Team for Kids at the Chicago Marathon in October 2024.
