Anna Herling (She/Her)

Anna has always enjoyed fitness but didn’t start running until college as a quick way to get a workout in. She ran her first 5k after her freshman year of college and has continued running ever since. She’s participated in both trail and road races from 1 mile in length to marathons. Her favorite thing about running is the community it brings together.  There’s nothing like race day energy!

By day, Anna works as a physician assistant in family medicine. She loves preventative healthcare and is excited to bring that passion to Starting Line too!

Favorite Running Memory: My first marathon - the Maine Marathon!

Favorite Race: I really enjoy the 10 mile distance. The Portland 10 Miler and the MTC Mid-Winter Classic are two of my favorites.

Starting Line I have my eye on: Big Sur Marathon (Boston to Big Sur is the ultimate goal!)
