Recognize this friendly, fun-loving and artistic lady?
Meet ALLISON CAPPS!
Allison, has been at idaph events pumping out creative designs and graphics for years! You will also recognize her behind the camera at most of our ‘idaph owned’ events. She is a busy mom with two little ones and juggles all that life entails when you are working, staying healthy and fit and being an awesome mother at the same time. Allison is an artist that constantly comes up with unique designs for our brands and events. She is loyal, fun, friendly and committed to women in our community in both running and in her volunteer work.
We asked Allison a little bit about herself - her favorite running shoes, races, and more! Here are a couple quick things for you to know:
About Allison…
Any fun races coming up? I’m running my first Half Marathon in 4 years in November, post-baby, post pandemic running here I come!
Speaking of races, which iDaph event has been your favorite to date and what made it so special? The inaugural Jump Off Rock Half and 10k! It was our first big event with a finish line party, post pandemic and it was so special to get to celebrate and see our running community come out in person!
What advice would you give to anyone struggling to get back into running after a setback (injury) or having a baby (Allison)? Running and exercising is so different post-baby! Give your body grace! It has been through so much (and still is), remind yourself you can push yourself and set goals but also HAVE FUN! Pre-baby Allison always had time and distance goals, now I’m running for health and fun! One day I’ll get back to goals but for now I’m focusing on building fitness and gaining muscle back.
Favorite race distance? Half-marathon, hands down! Although, I’m going to talk Daphne into letting me run the Frostbite 10k this year & one day Ill get Amy to do a Marathon with me!
How many times a week do you run? 3-4 times
How many times a week do you exercise? 5-6 times, Runners don’t underestimate some strength training!
Music or no music when running? I don’t think my legs work if I don’t have music!
Favorite running season? FALL 
crisp air and the warm sun with crunchy leaves is my favorite!
crisp air and the warm sun with crunchy leaves is my favorite!Favorite running shoe? I’m running in Asics Gel Nimbus right now, but am a long time Brooks Launch fan too.
Running solo or with friends? Both! I like the quiet of running alone, but friends are welcome too! My best running buddy is my dog Lilly Mae, though.
And then anything else you think that would be fun/interesting to share with our participants about you!
Fun Fact! I met my husband on our high school cross country team, so running is kind of a big deal in our house. We also love taking our 2 kiddos on Jeep rides, Braves baseball, and are foodies who love a cup of bougie coffee!
