Verna Volker

Open Board – Foundation Committee

I am a wife, mother of four kids and work part time as Special Education para. I am a ultra runner who has recently completed a 50 mile race. I am the founder of Native Women Running, ambassador for Native Women’s Wilderness and for Red Earth Running Company. I am from the Navajo Nation and advocate for the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women.  

My goals are advocacy and outreach – I would like to make a space for more indigenous runners in Minnesota.
