Hiral Das

Hello! My name is Hiral. I grew up in India and have proudly called the Greater Seattle area home for the past 15 years. I’m happily married, a mom to two amazing kiddos (ages 8 and 4), a UW graduate, and I work at Seattle Children’s Hospital. I began my running journey at a young age in India and rediscovered my passion for running here in Seattle. My current goals are to build strength, train beyond the half marathon distance, and continue building community support around this sport. Running has been part of my life on and off for many years, and through it I’ve developed a deep connection to the joy, resilience, and perseverance the sport brings. Running truly sets my soul on fire. It is truly about the community we build and the friendships we form along the way. Like many runners, I believe that speed does not define us; our response to challenges and our commitment to our goals does. Every mile under our feet counts. Instagram: @h.i.r.a.l_d
