  • “There's still much work to be done where representation is concerned. The fitness space tends to highlight one demographic, and this is why the work of Latoya and others like her is so critical. She's challenging so many stereotypes and preconceived notions about what it means to be an athlete. Diversity matters, and you never know how your actions as a BIPOC person might influence younger people of color.”

  • “I love that you are unapologetic about your size and chronic conditions. It is great to see someone atypical running and exercising. I love that you work through your chronic conditions and talk about them.”

  • “Latoya is an unapologetic advocate for those athletes who have long been ignored or intentionally kept out of athletic spaces by both brands and other individuals. She speaks for those who are moving in bodies that do not fit the diet culture standard of "healthy" or "athletic", those who are moving in bodies with chronic illnesses, those who are moving slower than others, and those People of Color who are moving in White-centric spaces. Latoya makes the world a better place - it is her raison d'etre. She is the future of the health and wellness industry. She embodies the direction so many of us hope to see the industry evolve into.”

  • “I have admired Latoya for many years for her courage to take up space where she is told she doesn't belong. Inspiring countless new runners to enter into a world they never would have without her, and discovering their own strengths and potential because of her guidance. Latoya has brilliant ideas and loves to share her knowledge and experience to make the running community a better place for all.”
