Kellenberg Alumna Kylie Pearse (2011), a former “Lady Firebird” and Bucknell University Track ace, ran to one of the all-time best Marathon performances by a Long Island born female. Pearse debuted in 2:50:22 for the 26.2-mile race at the famed “Corning (NY) Wineglass Marathon.”
Pearse, a successful Insurance agent for The Chubb Company, finished second female overall, garnering that place’s $600.00 money prize. Currently running for the Philadelphia Running Club, Pearse has been a wonderful role model for the current “Lady Firebirds,” as she continues to balance a successful career with a healthy lifestyle and successful athletic career.
