Name: Nina Oishi Age: 26Hometown: Honolulu , Hawaii Occupation: LawyerTime running: I started in 2008, took a break in 2013, and returned to the sport in 2022.Reason for running: Running makes me feel good because I’m free to set my own goals, which aren’t tethered to my career or anyone’s expectations. It’s just for me and I’m proud of that.Growing up in Honolulu , Hawaii , one of my favorite courses to run in high school was where Jurassic Park was filmed in 1992.
It started with the 5K in Central Park, then I challenged myself to complete the New York City Half Marathon in April. I then worked to improve my speed over the summer and, tackle my first marathon. Next, I plan to race the Oklahoma City Marathon, considering I’ve made it through this training block, and racing helps me stay motivated.
