Lace up your running shoes and take that first step towards a healthier state of mind. That's the world Angelica Vannatta, a fireball of energy and former high school sprinter, invites us into. In this episode, Angelica shares some of her physical endeavors and mental leaps. Along the way, she highlights the unexpected joy and community connection found in running.
With a zest for life, Angelica delves into how her passion for mental health awareness resulted in an innovative fundraiser. We unravel the intricacies of the 4x4x24 challenge and Angelica's pursuit of "ridiculous but doable" goals – including tackling a sprint triathlon and her fear of swimming head-on. Join us for stories of triumph, the occasional Steelers shoutout, and a surge of inspiration that might just spur your next great challenge.
