Episode 31 - Valerye Boyer-Wells

This week I had the privilege to speak wit 2002 New Mexico Sports Hall of Fame inductee Valerye Boyer-Wells. She started her career at a young age with the Duke City Dashers under Coach Jim Ciccarello. They worked together through her young years and into her high school time at Manzano High.

During her running career, Valerye was a part of US National teams, made Junior Olympics, and also two Olympic Trials. But through that, she had a goal in mind thanks to her coach. At 10 years old she made a decision that helped guide her through her running career and into the job she wanted. She talks about having clear goals and how that helped lessen the blow of her running accomplishments.

This is a story that I am very happy to share. I don't have enough praise for this amazing woman.

Let's keep doing what we're doing and stay safe, help each other out, and keep running, New Mexico.
