  • Background: We are joined today by Kristen Doornbos, founder of Paper Trails Greeting Co. who is spearheading a petition titled Equal Money for Equal Miles. Despite competing on the same 26.2 mile course, athletes in the Wheelchair and Para categories are awarded only a fraction of the prize money their able bodied counterparts receive. That is, if they are awarded anything at all. Kristen is using #equalmoneyforequalmiles to bring awareness to this issue and spark change.

    Questions Asked in this Episode:

    What inspired you to create the Equal Money for Equal Miles petition? Would you mind providing the listeners with some knowledge regarding Para athletes and wheelchair athletes and the disparities in pay at US Major Marathons? What do you feel like are the best ways that individuals can support Para athletes, wheelchair athletes, and athletes with disabilities? As of the 2021 Tokyo Games, Paralympians are paid the same amount as Olympians for medaling in an event, so the argument that asking the U.S. Major Marathons to do the same is not a new concept. Why do you believe that the U.S. Major Marathons are not offering the same monetary awards for Para and wheelchair athletes? How do you believe that these marathons would benefit from offering equal prize money? Why do you feel that representation is crucial for Para and wheelchair athletes? What do you believe participation in sport provides for Para athletes, wheelchair athletes, and athletes with disabilities? How can others get involved and spread awareness to create change in prize money awarded by U.S. Major Marathons?

    Show notes:

    1. Sign the petition on on change.org. 

    2. On Instagram: Look for the “Equal Money for Equal Miles” image as the cover of a carousel post originating from @papertrailsgreetingco and @kristendoornbos. Please interact with the post! Like, save, comment, and most importantly, SHARE to your own stories. The IG algorithm rewards this early interaction by prioritizing the post in people’s feeds, and more views = more signatures. Ask your own followers to reshare the post. If you have close connections to running influencers, disability advocates, podcasters, media, coaches, running brands, pro athletes, and especially Wheelchair/Para athletes… please SHARE THE POST with them and ask them to sign & repost.

    3. TAG @bostonmarathon, @chimarathon, and @nycmarathon. We WANT them seeing this.

    4. When posting to your own stories, please copy and paste the Petition Link onto a Link Sticker. This makes it easier for your own followers to find & sign. You can also use the hashtag #equalmoneyforequalmiles

  • Antonella Chispe was born and raised in SoCal-Los Angeles. She is the First generation American of Ecuadorian parents and 1 of 4 siblings. She holds a Bachelors degree in Kinesiology and is currently working on a second Bachelors in Nutrition-Dietetics to be a future dietitian. What inspired her to pursue nutrition is her current workplace and running. She works in healthcare-dialysis, which has led her to realize there are not many Spanish speaking dietitians and when speaking to patients, they often share there was never a dietitian that they were able to communicate with and ask questions. Listening to so many stories, she decided she wanted to make a difference. When it comes to running, her story starts at 14 years of age. She ran her first marathon at 14, the LA marathon. Running also saved her in many ways. It has pushed her to be better overall as a person. It helped her leave a verbally abusive relationship. It’s been a consistent part of her life that she appreciates and is grateful for everyday. The best part is, she has made great friendships and they train for their races together.

    Questions we dive into include:

    Antonella's background, including: how did you get started in running and/or athletics?
    What have been a few highlights in your running journey?
    What role has community played in your running experience (and in life)? Are you part of any running groups?
    You mentioned that running led you to choose your profession/career as a dietitian. What has your experience been like -- any highlights/favorite parts about your job?
    Where do you see room to improve when it comes to diversity and inclusion within the running (and nutrition) space?
    Do you have any tips for someone just getting started with running?
    What does life look like outside of running for you (family, career, hobbies, etc.)?
    What advice would you give to your younger self?

  • Andrea Toppin is a Chiropractor, an elite runner for Oiselle, a 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials qualifier, and a dog mom to a lovely, yet mischievous little shiba pup – Hazel. A true midwestern girl, she grew up in Clear Lake, IA – a small town in northern Iowa, went on to Iowa State University for college earning her Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology, and then moved to Minneapolis for 3.5 years earning her Doctor of Chiropractic while competing as an elite marathoner for Oiselle. Andrea moved to Colorado last fall for her final chiropractic internship in Denver. She now works at Washington Park Chiropractic in central Denver – specializing in women’s health, pediatrics, and sports medicine.

    Much of her inspiration to become a sports and women’s health chiropractor came from her experience as a collegiate distance runner at Iowa State where she ran cross country and track for the cyclones. Throughout her time at Iowa State, she helped lead her team to many Big 12 Cross Country titles, regional titles, and national championship berths. She had a lot of success as a student athlete at Iowa State, but she also had a lot of injuries leading to body image issues creating a whirlwind of anxiety and depression throughout her five years there. In her redshirt junior year, she was diagnosed with a pretty severe and rare stress fracture that the orthopedist called “career ending.” She refused to get surgery and decided to take control of her life by going to a sports psychologist to address her emotional and mental health. She also saw a dietician to help her with her disordered eating and body image issues- learning to see food as fuel. With the help of her coach, physical therapist, psychologist, dietician, friends, and family – Andrea came back that next fall to earn All-Region in Cross Country and helped lead her team to another national championship berth in cross country. She states the impact her physical therapist had on her in college saved her running career and quite frankly herself. As a chiropractor she wants to make that same impact for each and every one of her patients.

What role has community played in your running experience (and in life)? You've shared the hashtag #DiversityYourFeed on your Instagram: what does this mean to you, and how have you seen the running industry begin to diversify? Are there still gaps you see? Having been a part of Bridget's Run, can you tell us more about this cause and your experience as an ambassador? What advice would you give to your younger self? What does being a Strong Runner Chick mean to you?
