023. Dora Atim | Increasing diversity in trail running, building a community, working as a Nike Running Coach, running The Speed Project

Dora Atim is a Nike Running Coach, the founder of Ultra Black Running, an athlete and so much more.

We chatted with Dora as she just finished The Speed Project, a relay race from Los Angeles to Las Vegas across the Mojave Desert, with Team Long Distance. TSP is a celebration of running and its community aspect, which Dora represents so well. Check out a sick photo gallery on the Vert Run App!

We talk about how she got into running, about her work as a Nike Running Coach, how she plans to increase diversity in trail running and how she's inspiring people of any age, gender, color and walk of life to move and get outside, to feel good about running and sharing it with others.

Get inspired, check out Long Distance World, follow Dora on social media, get out for a run and share how awesome it feels!
