Julie-Anne has a heart for giving back to the community and is one of the cofounders of The ReRun Shoe Project, where they are working to give people across Canada a quality pair of shoes to participate in an active lifestyle.

In this episode, we talk about moving to the United States to train with Team NB Boston, growing up in a small town, her goals and dreams for her professional running career, her big breakout year last year, and so much more!
