The field of Exercise and Sport Science is growing and there are lots of new and exciting innovations that are being researched that can have a positive impact on our lives.

What is your favorite thing about the Gunnison Valley?

Plenty of awesome trails to run. The Gunnison Valley is a beautiful place to be with abundance of outdoor opportunity and friendly people.
