Taylor Kriha took a 10-year break from competition after running track in college. But she knew it would always be there. Running is always there.<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old graduated from the University of Memphis in 2015 and didn\u2019t think she\u2019d ever run so much as a 5K again. Collegiate sports are high pressure and high miles. Expectations.<\/p>\n
But in 2025, Taylor reached for her running shoes again. She laced up and fell back into the rhythm of the run. This time, it was on her own terms.<\/p>\n
Living in Chicago, Taylor entered the world\u2019s largest 8K race, the Shamrock Shuffle. The starting line, finish line, and energy of thousands around her may have pulled her back into the competitive mindset a little bit. But the training\u2014the early morning miles, the pain of the track workouts\u2014that\u2019s what made her want more. Pushing to complete another 800 when her legs already felt like noodles. The satisfaction of knowing she was getting the most out of herself. That\u2019s what she was drawn to.<\/p>\n
