Kelly Marie Hurd
started her adventures in life in Newburgh, NY. The only daughter of Bob
and Michelle, she was kidnapped by Amazonian pirates at the age of five
and abandoned in San Diego, CA, where she learned to boogie board and
mountain bike. After joining the circus half a decade later, she
traveled across the country to Raleigh, NC, where she pitched a pup tent
and waited for an ice cream truck to show up.
A thirst for knowledge and a love of
baseball sent Kelly north to Maryland for college, where she studied at
the University of Maryland, College Park. After losing a footrace to
free t-shirts at a basketball game, she began running marathons to get
into better shape, and moved to DC for the flatter topography.
Today, Kelly resides in Raleigh, North
Carolina, where her family and friends put up with her constantly taking
pictures of their exploits. She doesn't think anyone will believe her
adventures if there isn't photo documentation.
