Coach Meg Shipman
The Baltimore Cancer to 5K team is coached by avid triathlete Meg Shipman. Meg is an active member of Team Fight, and volunteered with Cancer to 5k in Howard County in 2011. She rowed Crew at the University of Delaware, and after overcoming a number of serious injuries, has made a resillant comeback into endurance athletics. She has competed in five triathlons over the past year, numerous half-marathons and ran the New York City Marathon in November 2011. Meg is a Medical Technologist, and runs a laboratory in an internal medicine practice in Annapolis MD. She is also a cycling instructor at Evolutions Body Clinic in Annapolis, MD, and has a passion for inspiring others to enjoy athletic activity and evolve their fitness!
Meg is also a cancer survivor, and is very passionate about her invovement in the Ulman Cancer Fund. She was diagnosed in January of 2010, and connected with the Ulman Cancer Fund about a year later. Cancer to 5k was her first volunteer work with UCF, and she is so grateful for all the relationships, connections and doors it has opened for her over the past year.
When Meg is not running her laboratory, or training for triathlons, she can be found in the water….her most favorite place. She is a kiteboarder and surfer…with a true affinity for the ocean!
She is very excited for a great Baltimore program this year and connecting with some amazing people!!! Lots of exciting things ahead!
