Camille Herron 🦸‍♀️

My recent podcast with Josh Rosenthal on Borderland Trailrunning is also on Youtube! He asked so many great questions and reflecting on races during my career. I felt re-inspired remembering 💫. I love our sport ⛰️🏃‍♀️!

I did an in-depth Q&A with Neurotribe about my lived experiences and finding out I’m late-diagnosed as Autistic/ADHD 🌈🧠.

I’m grateful to Emilia at Neurotribe for asking such thoughtful questions so I could explain my human differences 🦄.

Thank you so much Nora Bird for the lovely card and welcoming me back to the Mad City 100km 🙌💯! I ran my first 100km there in 2015 in 7:26 and got down to 7:08 to win the World Championship 🥇🇺🇸.

I think it’s a great project & see if I can crack sub 7 hrs 🔨👷‍♀️!

Been hooked on Bad Bunny lately as my warmup music- good stuff 💃!

A throwback to the 2022 Jackpot 100/US Championship, which I won overall in 12:41:10 🦸‍♀️🙌🎉!

I caught Arlen Glick around 88 miles. Kept grinding & broke my 12 Hr World Record (151.11 km).

With 5km to go, I thought of Keira D’Amato & dug deep 💥👟. This is a satisfying win & memory!

Autistic Barbie 🫶! This is so flippin cool I’m thinking about getting another one so I can preserve this one in the box 🥹💕.

Thank you for listening Christine- it’s a good one! We had some technical difficulties with the sound cause of spotty internet, but we got it done with 5 tries haha! Great conversation- enjoy 🙌🎤!

I joined the Running Scared podcast for a great conversation about my path from the marathon to Ultrarunning, the 2015 100K that changed everything, how the sport has evolved, injuries, resilience, & how being Autistic/ADHD shapes how I train/compete!

My training log from Aug 2004- we didn’t have external validation from social media yet, but we had goals and dreams, stories, and quotes to motivate and inspire us to shoot for the moon 🔥🚀🌖!

Last night I ran my 2nd run- 1 hr easy.

I started running doubles in 2004 and always felt best on those days. Then in grad school studying bone & exercise taught me that moving frequently is most anabolic. It instilled the purpose behind my training & the magic came out 🏃‍♀️✨✨.

Feeling the good vibes this morning and going into the week 😎☀️🙌!

Got in an easy 90 min this morning and will run 1 hr this evening. I’m working on building my volume back up 🧱🏠, after taking a bit of a break in December. My energy and sleep is doing better, so yeah- let’s rocket to the moon 🤘🚀🌖!

Hi there, I filed a defamation lawsuit in September against Gripped Publishing:

Ahh so glad you figured yourself out too 🙌🌈🧠! Totally understand- thank the world for sports and routine! Running and walking multiple times a day and before bed helps calm my brain too. I had to reframe my training in 2025 cause I recognized I was in Autistic burnout, but I’m better now 🔋🕊️.

🎥 600km World Record- Day 3+ when it feels like Groundhog Day 😂🫠.

After yrs of chasing World/American Records, 2025 became a year to recharge 🔋.

Learning I’m Autistic/ADHD has helped me better understand & support myself ✌️.

I’m ready to chase World Records again in 2026 🚀!

Thank you so much 💕! Yasss I see it more with time! I’m a carbon copy of her in sooo many ways. I have a bit of our Dad’s spitfire 😂🔥, but our Mom is calm, quiet tenacity, and glows 💖. She’s wonderful. I’m grateful for our parents and soaking in all their wisdom 🤗.

Our sweet Momma ❤️! She went into labor on Christmas Eve and had me just after midnight- the first baby born in Norman on Christmas Day in 1981 🎉. Mom says I was happy baby, and our great-grandma nicknamed me Smiley 😄.
Thank you for the birthday wishes 💕. Bless you all 🙏!

HPRS Podcast – Episode 75: Camille Herron, The Truth

I had the opportunity to share my full truth, uninterrupted, on the HPRS Podcast with John Lacroix. We covered the past two years, my whistleblowing, justice sensitivity, neurodivergence, & mission to make our sport safer and more inclusive.

Spot the Autistic person on the plane 😂💃.

Learning I’m AuDHD last yr helped me understand why stimming/fidgeting a lot helps keeps me regulated when traveling. Music, water, snacks, and space to move help calm my nervous system.

If you see someone stimming, let them be 🌈🧠.

My life philosophy is “Be a good human.” ✌️

When my family lost our home to a tornado in HS, all I had is what I was wearing, including a pair of running shoes. I knew one pair can inspire a dream 💫.

When I won the Comrades Marathon in 2017, I brought shoes to give away 👟🎉.

Someone asked how I feel about some of my World Records being surpassed. I’m inspired & proud of the women who believed they could do it 💫. We push each other- iron sharpens iron ⚔️.

In my 40s, I still believe the best is yet to come. Women Ultrarunners age like fine wine 🍷!

#WorldMentalHealthDay 💖

Since June of last year, I’ve been openly sharing that I was formally diagnosed as Autistic (Level 1) and ADHD (combined type)— called AuDHD. I have a ‘rainbow brain’ 🌈🧠.

This popped up on my memories- training in Oct 2017 at Mt Scott in Oklahoma ⛰️💥👟!

The Tunnel Hill 100 was my first completed 100 miler. Boy did we make it count 🦸‍♀️🔝- winning outright and taking over an hour off the previous World Record to run 12:42:40 🙌🔥!

The more we talk about Autism, ADHD, and neurodivergence, the more the world accepts us to be our authentic selves 🌈🦄✨✨!

I love my brain exactly the way it is 😄✌️.

#ActuallyAutistic

I tested Drony’s speed 🚁💥👟- she kept up pretty well hahaa! Good job Drony 🙌!

Throwback to 2018 Desert Solstice- my first 24Hr World Record (262.19 km/162.9 mi 🚀)!

I hit the wall at 2am but was revived by @tacobell.bsky.social 🌮+🍺. They sent me gifts afterwards.

Also had 44 gels & no gut issues 🙌.

I was a shy girl & struggled to talk. Then Mom put me in dance 🩰, piano/choir 🎶, and sports 🏀. I came out of my turtle shell— expressing my joy on stage, the court, and the fields 👧🏻✨. Music and dancing make me come alive 💃🫶!
