Meet BibRave Pro – Jenna Kinzie

Our BibRave Pros are a team of awesome run blogger who run the best races and test the latest products. We asked each of our Pros to answer a few questions about themselves, their running history and their favorite gear! If you have any comments or additional questions, let them know below!

Name: Jenna Kinzie

Where I live… Dallas, Texas

I’ve been a BibRave Pro for… 2 years

My main running goal for 2018 is: A 1:30’s Half Marathon and to work on strength training and stay injury-free!

My running shoes are… Asics Nimbus for going long, New Balance 1500’s for speed!

My favorite race distance is: Currently the Half Marathon distance.

My pre-race routine is: Lay out my gear the night before, go to bed extra early, wake up extra early, sip an extra strong coffee ☕️! I get in some puppy snuggles while I scroll Instagram, plan my route/book my Uber, then it’s go-time!

My favorite races are… The Portland Marathon, Tulsa Run, and the Plano Balloon Festival.  

My playlist consists of… Rap and hip hop! Current, 90’s, and 00’s. The beats pump me up.

My race day gear checklist includes: My AfterShokz Trekz Titanium headphones and tunes, my Koala Clip, current favorite shoes + MilestonePod, and an applesauce packet!

Why I like being a BibRave Pro – I love love LOVE the sense of community, making new friends, and the amazing experiences – running new races that I might otherwise never do and getting to try new and innovative running gear! Being a Pro has truly changed my whole running experience for the better in many ways!

My favorite episode of The BibRave Podcast is: #32 – Julia’s Marathon Goal REVEALED! — I love this one because Julia has always been my running role model (I don’t think she knows it until now!) so it was fun to listen to her talk about her incredible goals, plus she went over some of the history behind Grandma’s Marathon which was really interesting and it’s now one of my bucket list races!

Post-race I always eat… Whatever they’re handing out at the Finish plus my usual go-to — breakfast tacos!
