Stacy Chesnutt has been racing for 28 years and has completed 50 marathons and a couple hundred half-marathons. She races as often as possible and tries to find a race whenever she travels. As a result, she has raced in London, Prague, Bermuda, Spain and throughout North America. Originally born in Nashville, Tennessee, Chesnutt spent much of her adult life in New York City and moved to Nova Scotia in 2006. With dual citizenship, Chesnutt proudly considers herself an AmeriCanadian and has made the East Coast her home.

Chesnutt is an avid triathlete who is proud of completing eight Ironman races, including the particularly challenging Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. However, her proudest sporting accomplishment just arrived in January, 2012. Stacy finally broke 3 hours in the marathon! Her PR of 2:59:05 came in her 30th marathon and 20 years after she started doing marathons.

Chesnutt devotes much of her spare time to charitable work and encouraging young boys and girls to boost their self esteem through participation in running clubs with the Junior League of Halifax and her own Girls Gone Gazelle, an all girls free running club that Stacy coaches and organizes.
