Lindsey Dwyer

About

Lindsey Dwyer is an American ultrarunner and full-time teacher from Larkspur, California who has won seven of the ten 100-mile races she has entered — including an outright win at the Rio Del Lago 100 in Granite Bay — before stepping up to 200-plus miles for the first time at the 2025 Cocodona 250. In her debut at that distance she placed second in the women’s race in 79:35:28, finishing 13th overall, despite battling a respiratory illness through the opening night that made breathing almost impossible. She ran with patience and consistency through the multi-day format to hold her position, earning a spot on the 2026 start list. One of the most striking conversion stories in recent American ultrarunning, built around a career in full-time teaching rather than professional sponsorship.
