Onbrand

I’m Shri, a 30 year old brown mama who started her running journey 5 months postpartum. All through my life I’ve been a chubby girl and I’ve been the least athletic person I knew. When I had my son the noise in my head was so overwhelming and I headed out on my run as a way to just get a few minutes to myself. Suddenly all the doubts and the noise on my ability disappeared and gave me a space to breathe. Since then I ran my first full and half marathons and am hearing up for my second marathon, the Marine Corps in Oct 2025. As someone with hypothyroidism, salt intake is a big part of why I’m still able to run and I’d love for other people like me to find good brands that are worth trying and relishing.
