Brooks Sports Commemorates Liz Duncan Killed During Run

On Saturday, April 21, the world tragically lost a beloved daughter, sister, friend, and co-worker.

Elizabeth “Liz” Duncan, Brooks Sports Customer Service Representative, was hit by a car in Seattle and died at the scene. That morning, Liz was out for a daily training run and stood at an intersection waiting for the rest of her running group to arrive. Without warning, an out-of-control car jumped the curb, struck Liz and killed her instantly.

Liz is survived by her family, including her parents and two brothers from Washington’s Tri-Cities area. She was to celebrate her 27th birthday today, April 24. More about Liz.
