Featured Speaker: Keira D'Amato
We are hosting our Winter Seminar the weekend of February 17, 2024 with American long-distance runner & 2024 Olympian hopeful Keira D'Amato! Among many accomplishments, she’s held the American women’s full & half marathon records, held the second fastest qualifying time headed into the 2024 USA Olympic Women’s Marathon Trials, and does this all while balancing being a wife, mother, realtor & entrepreneur!
Enjoy a fun filled Winter Seminar weekend featuring Keira D'Amato! The TCTC Winter Seminar weekend will start Saturday with afternoon and evening events with Keira, followed by a Sunday morning community fun run with Keira (and proceeds benefiting H.O.P.E of Winston-Salem – a local nonprofit that works at the intersection of children’s health and food insecurity)! This weekend will be sure to inspire, educate and entertain all ages while bringing lots of laughs!
Keira D'Amato
Keira D'Amato is an All-American runner, turned Realtor, turned Pro Runner for Nike + Realtor (a lot happened from point A to point B), turned Marathon American Record Holder. She runs because she loves it, but she also has a lot of unfinished business from her first round of running to set straight.
Outside of professional running and a career in real estate, she also has her own running store in the greater Richmond, Virginia area - where she lives with her husband and two children.
