Gina Slaby

Born and raised along the Hudson River in New York, Gina differs from many elite athletes in that she did not run in high school or college. In fact, she says, "I only started running so I could get in shape for the Navy's physical fitness test." After earning her degree in Biology with a minor in Chemisty from SUNY-Cortland, Gina began her running career in preparation for the aforementioned mile and a half run. It should be safe to say that she accomplished that and so much more. Gina's athletic exploits…
