Despite suffering from congenital hip dysplasia and enduring severe pain, Carrie never gave up on her passion for running.

Through her story, Carrie shares how she overcame mental and physical hurdles, highlighting the importance of setting mini-goals and remaining resilient in the face of adversity. We delve into her recovery process, the adjustments in her running gait, and the emotional moments that kept her going.
