This week we had the opportunity to spend some time with Amy Clark – a local Bendite, a mom of twins, an ultrarunner, and the editor for Ultrarunning Magazine! We discuss all kinds of things ranging from IVF and pregnancy to her progression into ultras and her experience running Western States to what it’s really like to be an editor of a magazine.
