In her youth, Anne was a competitive gymnast. Her favorite sports aside from SBR are skiing and soccer. After graduating from the University of Oregon (Track Town, USA) with a degree in Journalism, Anne lived in Munich, Germany, and Amsterdam, the Netherlands where she skiied and cycled her way through many Alpine countries.

Anne has two children and an active husband who keep her on her toes. In her spare time, Anne enjoys volunteering at her son's school, coaching his soccer team, instructing indoor cycling and playing with the family. You might catch Anne with her daughter at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle on one of her coveted recovery days.
