Hannah Williams is a young professional living in San Francisco, California, balancing her time between working in political research and being a trail-running, rock-climbing, mountain-dwelling fanatic. This year, her love for running has only grown as she’s joined community-based run groups like Queer Run SF, Renegade Running in Oakland, and, of course, her local branch of Trail Sisters. Some of her most authentic relationships have come from spending miles on dusty trails, sharing snacks and diving deep into conversation. An aspiring writer, Hannah hopes that by sharing her own story she can encourage others to do the same, and make the running community as inclusive and empowering a space as possible.
