My name is Stella Springer, I’m an ultra runner lives in Los Angeles CA. This is my first year on the team and super excited that Araivapa expanded to include California.
I have been running since 2016 and started doing ultra distances in 2020. I love all kinds of ultra races: trails, road, track, pretty much any surface presents unique challenges to me. I love the mountains (but suck at techy trails) and my favorite distance is 100 miles, I found it long enough to push all the limits I have but still have fun.
I am currently holding 6 American age group (W50) records including 12hrs, 100 miles, 200K and 24hrs between track and roads. I competed in 2023 24Hrs World Championships as part of the Team USA and that was the best experience I had as a runner. I also won 2025 USATF 100 Mile National Championships and set new AG record there.
I have some big goals set for 2026 – let’s chase those dreams!
