I’m Mari and I’m an amateur endurance athlete who has had type 1 diabetes for more than 40 years. I’ve survived breast cancer twice and am navigating a third breast cancer recurrance. I am not a medical professional nor am I giving medical advice.

I live in Saint Paul, Minnesota with my two bikes, my many pairs of running shoes, my swim goggles, my love of cooking healthy food every week and my very athletic rescue dog Sam!
