About our President, Aracely Areas is originally from Nicaragua. Aracely is a runner, a coach with San Jose Fit, Run365, Paced Nike Run Club, a Certified Chi Running Instructor and a Software QA professional in Silicon Valley
Her dream is to empower women and girls through exercise and encourage young women to stay in school to achieve their dreams. She started working at the age of 7, going door-to-door and selling oranges and vegetables. Her motivation at that time was to buy books to go to school because she wanted a better life for herself. And now after achieving success wants to help others succeed and show those girls that there is a better future if they go to school. And because every young girl’s first role model is their mother, show mothers that they can improve their outlook and quality of life and their health through exercise like running or walking.
