My name is Tanner, and I live in the beautiful state of North Carolina, which I like to call the "Midwest of the South." I’ve been here for four years and have loved experiencing all the natural beauty the state offers.

My running journey began in the spring of 2023, when I started running for health benefits—and quickly became hooked. I started on the roads, then transitioned to running trails in Charlotte.

I signed up for my first trail race on St. Patrick’s Day, where I got doused in green dye, and from that moment, I was captivated by the thrill of racing.

Since then, I've completed several half-marathons, full marathons, and even a 50-mile ultra marathon. My goal is to inspire others to experience the physical and mental benefits of running and show them that any challenge can be overcome with preparation, determination, and a drive to succeed.

I founded Untamed Running Company with the vision of growing it into something more than just coaching—eventually expanding into apparel and even launching a running club here in Charlotte.
