Weini Kelati is a professional road and long distance track racer for the Mission Run Dark Sky Distance team sponsored by Under Armour. Kelati is one of the best US racers in the 10k, 5k, and, more recently, half marathon.

In this episode, Kelati shares how she got to this point in her running career, with a particular focus on the transformation her racing went through over the past year.

This involves hard training, of course. But Kelati also had to improve her physical and mental skills when it came to races that did not suit her preferred style of racing. And, she needed to overcome times of wavering self confidence as well as learn how to process difficult emotions; emotions linked to Kelati's decision to leave her home and family in Eritrea when she was 17 and start a new life in the US.

Hear the whole story of how Kelati became the champion runner she is today: the risks she's taken to get to this place, the sacrifices she's made, for herself and her family, and the focused, diligent work she's put in to reach the very high goals she sets for herself.

Weini Kelati's story is truly exceptional.
