Who is an Ultra Lady?
She is a strong, independent woman who can hang with the dudes but prefers running with other women! She shares her love of nature, trails and running and seeks to share her strength with other like-minded women. She doesn't mind being covered in dirt, sweat and sometimes even blood! Adversity doesn't get her down and if she falls, she picks herself back up and keeps going.
She is "More Ultra, Less Lady"!
