Rachel is a Calhoun junior majoring in English . During high school, she ran for 12 straight seasons because as it turns out, running is like Pringles (i.e., once you pop, you can't stop). Besides running, Rachel enjoys teaching, ballet, food, and speaking Spanglish.

Emily, a sophomore who is (probably) majoring in American Studies and East Asian Studies, hails all the way from the far-off Timothy Dwight College. Emily is from New Jersey (you got a problem with that?), where she ran track and cross and country, as well as learned to ignore all traffic laws (as long as the cars don’t actually hit you…) You can usually spot Emily running in shorts and T-shirt—even when it’s snowing and below freezing.

Julian is a junior in Saybrook College, majoring in cognitive science. Julian is from South Africa, the country. When he’s not injured, he enjoys running. He is often congratulated for running in very tight running gear, and he has other talents too. When he grows up, Julian wants to understand the neural correlates of consciousness, but If he doesn’t succeed, he’ll settle for piquant runs and friendly conversation.

Sarah is a junior in Calhoun, and is lucky enough to live with Rachel. Rachel is also the reason that Sarah joined the running team after leaving the varsity tennis team. Other than running, Sarah enjoys photography and backpacking. Sarah is known for being very introverted, conservative, and by far the most uptight of all the running board members.

Nataliya Langburd is a sophomore in Morse College, a prospective economics and global affairs major. Born in Ukraine, she speaks English and Russian fluently, and enough Spanish to survive a meal in Mexico, maybe. Interested in energy security, her dream is to power the world through running (but actually, wouldn’t that be great?). In her free time, besides tripping all over the place on the East Rock trail runs, she loves playing apples to apples, losing fights to her five-year-old brother, hitting around the tennis ball, and eating apples.

Michelle Taylor is a Davenport College Junior who eats, sleeps, breathes, and babbles incessantly about her English major. When not running and spouting off lines of T. S.

She much prefers running on trails to running on roads and goes out of her way to lead every YRR run into the woods.
