Mirna Valerio is proving that you can be an athlete in whatever body you have.

What started as a blog, FatGirlRunning, about her experiences as a larger woman in a world of thinner athletes, has turned into a movement that inspires people everywhere to be whoever they want and to do whatever makes them happy. 

Her training, racing, and advocacy work allow others to see what is possible because no one should determine what you can or can't do.

So, as she says in her keynote from the Feisty Women's Performance Summit, "Stick your ass in all the spaces because you belong!"
