Courtney Munson: Multiple 100-Mile Ultra-marathoner

CourtneyClipart.TSO.jpg

Courtney is an ultra-runner and two-time 100-mile finisher. She lives in Memphis, Tenn., but can usually be found anywhere between the Colorado Rockies and the foothills of the Appalachians burning up the trails with her sweet puppy, Lucy. Give her a follow on Twitter and Instagram @cmmunson. 

One fun fact about Courtney is that in 2013, she helped Bryan’s wife, Sarah run her fastest marathon to date in Louisville, Kentucky. With Courtney’s help as a pacer, Sarah crushed her previous PR by an hour, finishing at 4:01:04. And when I tell you she laid it all on the course that day, she laid it all on the course that day…literally. Bryan took a photo of the two of them crossing the finish line and Sarah had her hand over her mouth with a cheek full of that morning’s breakfast. Courtney’s face was priceless. I imagine her thinking, “Oh no. She’s going to vomit. She’s going to vomit. Please don’t vomit on me. Please don’t vomit on me.” Sarah did vomit, but not on Courtney…thankfully.
