Kimberly Oerhlein Medals

We are very pleased to have Kimberly Oerhlein as a returning Asheville Marathon and Half Ambassador! A highly accomplished runner who visits dozens of marathons a year, Kim is great at spreading the word about the Asheville Marathon and Half! “Last year’s Asheville Marathon was an incredible experience, from the moment I entered the expo until I left the finish line party.” A resident of Helena, AL, Kim loves to travel. She recounts a little bit of leisure time with beau Chuck in their 9-day Alaskan Cruise! Check out those dishes! You can find a 3-part photo log of their journey here. Kim’s love for travel extends to her love for running. Traveling all over the States to run inspires and brings her joy! You can sense that during the race. Kim’s enthusiasm for running is contagious! You can find her at the Biltmore starting line in 2015!

“I’m honored to return for my second year as an AMA. Last year’s Asheville Marathon was an incredible experience, from the moment I entered the expo until I left the finish line party.”

What’s your favorite post-training food? “My favorite food after a training run is either a smoothie or a bacon, egg and cheese bagel sandwich.”

What about after the marathon? “My favorite post-marathon food is steak. Many apologies to my vegetarian and vegan friends!”

And while running? “During the run, I enjoy cola flavored PowerBar Energy Blasts, all varieties of Jelly Belly Extreme Sport Beans, and any flavor of GU Chomps, Clif Shot Bloks, or Honey Stinger Organic Energy Chews that includes caffeine.”
