Hi my name is Gaël Cruanes! I’m an avid long distance runner and like racing half marathons, marathons, 10k’s, and maybe ultra/trail races in the future. I’m currently holding a fundraiser to run in the New York marathon and all the money goes to Run For the Kids, an organization that provides materials and resources for children in New York to get involved in running and physical activity. Currently, I have a few marathons planned for the end of the year and am training to maybe get into longer distances next year. I would love to get to the next level whether that be semi professional or professional. Outside of running I work as a physical therapy aide and am applying June 2022 to medical school. I have a variety of interests including chronic pain, palliative care, global health, preventative health, sports medicine, global music, and philanthropy work in impoverished nations.
