Melody Fairchild, one of America’s fastest high school runners, shares her journey from high school record-setting phenom to empowering youth coach. Melody, the director of the Boulder Mountain Warriors Youth Running Club, shares her comprehensive approach to running and life, particularly for adolescent girls. Melody is also the author of “Girls Running,” a comprehensive guide for adolescent runners. We appreciated Melody’s perspective and approach as a former youth champion turned coach, along with her guidance and wisdom on how to approach running during puberty. We absolutely loved this conversation! Find out more about Melody on her website, melodyfairchild.com.
