Description

Emma Grace Hurley is a young professional runner with the Atlanta Track Club. She is relatively new to racing longer distances on the road, having raced her first road races as a pro last year.
In this race report, Emma Grace gives us some background on her racing career, as well as the inside scoop on how things went down at the 2023 USATF 15k National Championships, which were held on March 6 at the Gate River Run in Jacksonville, Florida.
With Emily Sisson lining up, it was an all but foregone conclusion that she would run away with the win, which she did. The American record holder in the marathon and half-marathon, Emily Sisson is having a "moment," to put it mildly.
But how would the rest of the race unfold for this stellar field of competition? Emma Grace had her sights on making sure she had some say in the matter, which is exactly what she did. No doubt, we'll be hearing a lot from Emma Grace in the future.
Stay tuned to the end of the episode to hear top 10 results from this incredible field of top American runners.

Titles in the series (100)

We share stories about running, told by women runners from around the world. Many episodes feature one woman’s story, focused around a topic that is central to her journey or central to her experiences as a woman runner. Some topics we’ve covered: aging and longevity, community building, RED-s, pregnancy, and the mental game, and we have an entire series about “experiences at South Africa’s 90-km/56-mile Comrades Marathon.” We also feature an entire series about 9 women’s journeys to the 2021 Boston Marathon: Roads to Boston 2021. This series traced the running stories of all these women, from the beginning, to earning their Boston entry, all the way to the finish line. We believe in the power of story to uplift, inspire, motivate, educate. Host/creator Cherie Turner, a competitive athlete since age 5, former professional bicycle racer, and a passionate runner for over two decades, also brings her own experience, challenges, and discoveries to the show, with the intent of inspiring others to pursue their own exceptional running journey, whatever form that takes.
