Daria (foreground, with orange shirt and pink sunglasses) is all smiles with her running pals!

Daria Bakina was the only Full Circle Endurance athlete racing this past weekend; she ran the Skunk Cabbage Classic 10K in Ithaca, New York on Sunday, April 2, 2023!

The Skunk Cabbage Classic is a long-running race in Ithaca; this year marked the 40th time that the race has been held! It’s a rite of spring in the Finger Lakes Region of New York.

Daria prioritized this as a C-Race and ran it as a fun way to kick off the racing season. She had fun, got to hang out with some of her running pals, and ended up with a strong result (finishing in the top 20% of her age group) as a bonus!

Congratulations, Daria!
