Ep:104 - Jill Dennes "Make Your Mark In The Storm"

My guest in this episode is Jill Dennes a passionate young lady looking to make her mark in the world despite the storms she's face.

Jill was the last woman standing at the amazing backyard ultra event, The Mid-State Mile. She set the women's record going toe to toe with other amazing athletes.

We talk about her mother's death and her addiction to Adderall. She shares how Crossfit to work through the anger and it then become her outlet to work through the loss. 

I love her mindset to just try something new. Just jump in and figure it out as you go!

Jill has been a Health and Fitness Coach for 10+ years and has always loved helping others live their best life through health and fitness. She not only loves challenging others to be their best, but she loves challenging herself to do things she never thought were possible. Her life quickly turned upside down when she lost her mom very unexpectedly to a Stroke in 2016. She then turned to CrossFit as her outlet. She loved the sport and hasn't turned back. She is now a CrossFit Coach and helps others gain the confidence and strength she knows they have within them. Jill has always been a "natural runner" but never really ran more than a 5K every Sunday when she lived in Florida (2014-2020). It wasn't until 2021 she did her first Trail Race (25K) in PA. She hasn't looked back since! She has found another love besides CrossFit and that is the Running Community! She is excited to keep challenging herself with more races and to see where it takes her!
