Career

Boreman started running at a young age, and had a 5:09 mile run best in the 6th grade.[4] At Rouse High School, she won the Texas HS University Interscholastic League championships in cross country as a freshman, and also played soccer.[2][5]

From 2016 to 2022, Boreman was a member of the Colorado Buffaloes track and field program. She qualified for eight NCAA Division I national championship finals, with a best finish of 2nd at the 2017 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships in the 3000 metres steeplechase.[1]

At her first U.S. senior championship final in 2022, Boreman finished 9th. In 2023, Boreman improved her 3000 m steeplechase personal best from 9:33 to 9:22.99 to win the inaugural USATF LA Grand Prix. Following that win, she signed with Oiselle.[1] In July 2023, Boreman also won the rarely-contested 2000 metres steeplechase event at the British Milers' Club Grand Prix in Birmingham, her time of 6:09.81 setting a North American record.[6] Boreman finished 11th at the 2023 USA Championships.[1]
