Jenna Richardson

Women's Cross Country Head Coach

Jenna Richardson is entering her second year coaching at the University of Maine at Farmington. Jenna is a recent graduate of Brown University where she received a degree in Environmental Science. When Jenna isn't out on Maine lakes monitoring the water quality, she most likely can be found running, gardening or adventuring with fiancée, Sam Krajewski. Jenna has been a runner since high school, where she ran for
Waterville High. She continued her running at Brown University, where she became an All-Ivy League competitor in the 5k and 10k during track and field, and helped Brown to the Division I NCAA XC meet her Sophomore, Junior and Senior years. The highlight being a 9th place team finish in 1999.

Now out of college, Jenna still enjoys competitive running. She has moved up to the marathon distance. She ran her first marathon in June 2003 in 2hours and 49 minutes. Since then she has also run the Chicago marathon. Part of Jenna's love for the sport comes from sharing it with others. She is excited to lead and coach for the UMF women harriers again this year.  Although the team was small in 2003, Jenna helped each athlete to steady improvement throughout the season, capped by a great showing at the NAC conference meet.
