Lauren Puretz is a 40 year old practicing gynecologist in Colorado Springs, CO.  She has been running ultras for a few years now and has always been in the mix of things - 5th at Bandera 2021, 7th at Black Canyon 2022, and 4th at last year's Javelina Jundred. 

She is a member of the Colorado Aravaipa running team. Fun fact - she won the Sawatch Ascent 50K in Colorado outright last year and the only other woman to do that was Courtney Dauwalter! 

Lauren earned a golden ticket to Western States 100 by placing 3rd at Black Canyon 100 K a couple weeks ago, much to her own surprise! So stick around and let's get to know Lauren more.
