My name is Marlee Starliper, and I am a student-athlete at University of Colorado (formerly NC State) who runs for the cross country and track and field team! I am currently in my junior year, studying psychology and English literature. I grew up in Pennsylvania and started my journey with running in 8th grade. In the span of my high school career, I was an 8x Pennsylvania state champion, 2019 New Balance Outdoor Nationals champion, 2nd in the 3k at the 2019 Pan-American Games (as part of the U20 USA Team), National Runner-Up at 2020 Footlocker Cross Country Nationals, and have set numerous state/course records, as well as several top all-time national high school marks for the Mile, 2-mile, and 3k. After college, I hope to pursue a career as both a professional athlete and author!
