Victor Ornelas

My name is Victor Ornelas and I was born and raised along the Mendocino Coast of Northern California in a small town named Fort Bragg. I ran track and cross-country while attending The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I earned my BA in Exercise and Sports Science and full-filled my pre-requisites for physical therapy school. I continue to train at a high level focusing on the marathon and my lifetime goal is to qualify for the Olympic Marathon Trials. A perfect day for me is when I get to share my passion for running and inspire others! I enjoy troubleshooting injuries and sharing tips about injury prevention that will allow individuals to reach their maximum potential.

Fun Fact: My mother is from Mexico and my father is from the Azores Islands of Portugal.
