Sarah Robison Refuses to Let COVID-19 Stop Her from Completing Marathon

"Sarah Robison in running gear outside"Earlier this year, Sarah Robison, one of our CRNAs working at UPMC Presbyterian, resumed training after a previous injury to reach the ambitious goal of running her first full marathon in Pittsburgh. When the COVID-19 pandemic struck and the 2020 Pittsburgh marathon was canceled, Sarah refused to let her 30-week rigorous training go to waste. With support from her family, friends, and coworkers from our department, she ran the full marathon on her own and met her objective of completing the entire course. This uplifting story of Sarah’s perseverance and the support of our UPMC Presbyterian clinical team was featured on both KDKA radio and KDKA TV News.
