Yo fam! I’m Abbabiya Berissa Simbassa, or just Biya for short – some even call me Simba. I’m a professional distance runner for Under Armour living and training in Flagstaff, Arizona. I’m an Ethiopian-born athlete that's had the privilege of representing Team USA as a multiple champion multiple times in my career. I started my running career in the NJCAA Division as an All-American at Iowa Central CC before transferring to The University of Oklahoma in 2014. After graduating with considerably fast times but no NCAA Championship appearances, I relentlessly pursued my athletic career in order to achieve what I truly believed I could.
