Christine Churpek

Name:  Christine Churpek

Christine graduated from Kent State in 2005 and is a Product Manager at Kent Displays.   Christine absolutely love living in Kent, especially the running community here and the people she has met through running and other events. She ran track in high school, has competed in more 5K’s and trail races than she can count!   In 2018 Christine trained for and ran her fist full marathon. Christine will rarely say no to a race or event.  Christine is excited to train harder, improve my strength, speed and endurance, and take on many more challenges this year!

Christine has been very active with the team since joining in 2019.  She was awarded the Team ER Top Runner Point Earner in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2023.  In 2022 Christine was the 2nd Place Runner Point Earner.

Christine is a running coach and founder of Find Your Happy Pace.  She has completed several marathons including The Boston Marathon and The TCS New York City Marathon.
