Lizzie found running in her mid 20's and quickly fell in love. It became a huge part of her life as she began winning races and spending her weekends adventuring. She even met her now husband when they shared the podium together at a 50km. In May 2019 her life changed. She was diagnosed with a rare heart condition called AVRC. It's genetic condition that effects the muscle in your heart and makes it turn into scar tissue the harder you work the muscle. This is the main cause of the stories you hear when people drop head during races and marathons. Lizzie shares her story of how she is dealing with crazy diagnosis and accepting that she won't ever run again.
