The Candidate

As many of you know, Gina Lucrezi started Trail Sisters with a mission to uplift women in the sport of trail running. After realizing the impact of her efforts in the running community, Gina was motivated to bring that same effort and care to her local community of Buena Vista, CO.

This past January Gina started a new journey in an effort to become Chaffee County Colorado’s next District 1 County Commissioner.  Matt Trappe of Auteur Sportif was able to come along for the ride, capturing this year’s adventure and telling the story of how it came to be.

Speak: A Guide to Becoming Unshakable 

There’s a lot going on in the world. It can feel overwhelming. It is important to stand firm.
With that, it’s easier for change to feel more tangible when it is something we can affect a little more directly, like when we look at the communities we belong to, such as our little trail running community.
