Episode 510: Sara Vaughn – 2:23 Marathoner, Realtor, and Mom of 4 Headed to Orlando for the Olympic Marathon Trials

January 31, 2024

Sara Vaughn joins me right ahead of the trials today! Sara is competing in the Olympic Trials Marathon this weekend! She runs for PUMA. This past fall she ran a huge 3-minute PR at the Chicago Marathon where she ran a 2:23:24. Sara has been marathoning for three years now after she was originally a 1500m runner. She ran for CU in college and went on to run professionally on the track and ran unsponsored for over a decade. After turning to the marathon, she became sponsored by PUMA. Sara is also a realtor and a fellow mom of four!

I want to highlight one of the things that Sara does outside of running. She started the Vaughn Childcare Fund which has a mission to support parenting student-athletes with resources to get to graduation. Sara had her first child while in college at CU and has a passion to help others who find themselves in similar situations!

We’re rooting for you Sara!! Can’t wait to see how you do!!
