Stacey Kerkhoff's Author Bio and Posts

Hi! I’m Stacey. I’m a big girl, German Shepherd lover and fan of all things running. I am a long-time runner who has completed races from 5k all the way up to 80k distances. I firmly believe that if you RUN, you’re a runner, regardless of your size, shape, pace or distance.I created this site to share my experiences as a plus-size runner and to create a space where everyone can learn and celebrate each other. I hope you will join me on my journey and share your own experiences. I’m looking forward to getting to know you!

Every one of the reactions related to my use of the word fat. Most of the reactions were incredibly positive. Women laughed, nodded, and frequently said “I can so relate to that!!”
