TEAM ICE CREAM

For any runner (elite or not), your support network is critical to your success and staying healthy. I am so thankful to have a great network of family, friends, professionals, and sponsors.

We decided to name my support network Team Ice Cream because they each have their role and unique personality, and I LOVE ice cream, so why not?

Think about who is in your team, solidify who they are now, so when crises happen, you are ready!

Here are just a few of the people who have helped me chase my dreams by keeping me healthy and strong:

Steve Picucci– Coach (and Husband/psychologist :P) AKA Vanilla

Drew Watts– Strength Coach -AKA Coffee

Evie Serventi– Mental Coach/Sports Psychologist- AKA Honeycomb

Dr Stephen Pribut– Podiatrist- AKA Cotton Candy

Dr. Todd Nieder– DNS/Chiropractor- AKA Mint Choc Chip
