Description

Lucy Paez Stelzner of Distance Project NYC and We Run Uptown joins the Runners of NYC Podcast. On Instagram, she describes herself as a "Runner. Obsessive traveler. Public health advocate. Proud Latina. Reading nerd." Lucy is an emerging sub-elite in the New York City women's running community and has made an impact on the uptown running community.

Lucy ran 2:58 at the 2019 Tokyo Marathon, which is a major improvement from the 4:29 that she ran at the 2009 New York City Marathon. We discuss how she's elevated her running talent to the next level, why she surrounds herself with fast women in a newly-formed women's running crew, how she motivates those in the uptown community and much more. She also shares why she ran the Tokyo Marathon in memory of Marquita Francique.
