Biography
LaKisha Hoffman (28); Jennifer Hoffman (24)
Hometown: Bronx, N.Y. / Louisville, Ky.
Occupation: LaKisha (Program Coordinator); Jennifer (Marketing Assistant)
Relationship: Sisters
These two former Division 1 College athletes look forward to becoming
the first ever all female Team to win the Race. Besides athleticism,
these sisters have little in common.
LaKisha works as a youth program coordinator and basketball coach. She
hopes the same strengths that make her a good coach – patience and a
strong competitive nature - will ultimately make her the best Racer the
game has seen. Meanwhile, she claims her sister is very impatient and
blunt when it comes to dealing with others or speaking her mind.
Jennifer works as a marketing assistant and newsletter coordinator for
an assisted living company. She claims that she is the creative one
while LaKisha is the analytical one…two traits that will undoubtedly be
tested on the Race. Jennifer is infectiously energetic and confident,
played college volleyball at the University of Louisville. LaKisha
played basketball for the same school. Both have a competitive drive
and are eager to put it to the test against this season’s crop of
Racers.
Neither sister has traveled extensively outside of the states, but they
are looking forward to embarking on this journey of a lifetime together
in order to change that. They will run the Race with unstoppable speed
and numerous arguments along the way.
