LaTara Gibson

I'm LaTara Gibson. I’m married and have 3 children and we own an online camping business. 2022 will be my 8th season running 52.4.  I started running in 2013 to lose weight and get into better shape. When I found out about 52.4 at my first half marathon, I felt moved to join to make a difference in the lives of these precious kids in India! What I didn’t know was just how much of an impact these kids would have on my life!! My focus which once was only on my own personal running goals now I think about the difference I can make in the lives of children halfway around the world in India. I’m not a fast runner by any means and usually finish each half marathon in two and a half to three hours, but it is more about completing them and sharing with my friends and family how they can make a difference in the world, too. Can't wait to meet you on the racecourse and maybe even enjoy a nice big burger or slice of pizza with you afterward!
