From overcoming cancer to taking on the Leadville 100 Ultra Marathon, she’s proof of what’s possible when you push your limits. Amanda recaps Leadville, shares how ultra running became a path to personal growth, overcame cancer twice, and how it shaped her in ways beyond the physical. Her journey is a testament to resilience, strength, and the relentless pursuit of one more.
