Meet Margarita Navas- Family Engagement and Community Partnerships Director

Margarita Navas is a devoted mom, wife, and accomplished marathoner with over 25 years of experience making a difference in her community. A natural leader, she thrives on coordinating events that bring people together, creating meaningful connections. Her dedication to community involvement is evident through her service on HOA boards, where her organizational skills and collaborative spirit shine.

As a seasoned runner, Margarita has completed multiple marathons across California, Arizona and Nevada. However, balancing her passion for running with her role as a mother wasn't always easy. With a little one in tow, it was challenging for her family to fully enjoy the marathon experience, as the logistics of managing a baby while supporting her at races often proved difficult. Through determination and creative solutions, Margarita has embraced the joy of blending family and personal goals.

Her perseverance, energy, and commitment to helping others make her an invaluable part of the Olympic Families Playbook team, where she brings her expertise to inspire and support families on their own unique adventures.
