Welcome To

The Donut Runner

A running blog featuring running tips, gear, nature photography, and of course…donuts!

Welcome to my page

Hi, I’m Laura! 

I am a wife and mother who loves running, donuts, and exploring the world. This blog is a space to share all things running- gear, races, fuel, etc. I hope it will be a place to inspire you to embrace the beauty of running, whether you have never laced up a pair of running shoes or you run 100 miles a week. Here, I will share my running (and probably non-running) adventures, the ins and outs of being a “mother runner”, and where to buy the best donuts (and I won’t lie… all the best forms of junk food). In this space, I will share my passion for being a mental health advocate, and how running saved my life. Please grab a snack, and snuggle on in while we talk about the GOOD stuff!

Never Outrun the Joy of Running.

About Laura

HI, I’M LAURA

Hello and welcome to The Donut Runner! My name is Laura, and I’m addicted to three things: running, donuts, and sunrises. I am a mother to four amazing children, and a wife to the most wonderful man alive. We reside near the beautiful Wasatch Mountain Range in Utah, and they provide me with the best running and adventuring playground. I grew up right ‘next door’ in Colorado. I have been running since elementary school when my family participated annually in the world famous Bolder Boulder 10K. Since then, I have qualified for and completed in three of the six World Marathon Majors, discovered a deep love for racing Ultra’s, and love to explore the places I travel by foot while running.
