A life of running, coaching, and community with Sue McNatt

As a 10-year old Sue McNatt’s equestrian coach suggested she supplement her training with running to improve her endurance.  The next day she went for an endless run around the “block” and has never looked back.  Sue’s impressive competitive career spans decades as a high school all-American, Division One runner at Northwestern, and top masters runner.  Impressive as her running resume is, Sue's personal qualities as a coach and community member are even more notable.  Typical of Sue she attributes her success to the many mentors she has had during her journey including the many passionate members of our local running community including her husband Terry, Jon Waldron, Rich Benner, Chris Van Cott and Mike Shea.
