Ariane's Bio:

"I’m originally from Ventura, CA but recently moved to Detroit, MI. I have a twin sister and my mom is a back-up singer for Barry Manilow. I went to high and junior college in California before spending 1 year at UNC Pembroke on a basketball scholarship and then transferring to Minot State in North Dakota to finish my career and become and all-American. I am a tech rep for Altra footwear. After trying out for the pros overseas and not making a team, I fell in love with running because my dad always thought I would be a runner and since his passing it’s a way I still feel connected to him. My PRs are for the marathon 2:44:30 which I just ran in the virtual Pittsburgh marathon May 3 2020, 1:22 half marathon, 36:56 10k and 17:32 5k."
