Meet Kevin, a running rockstar whose passion and community spirit light up every race! 🏃‍♂️ As a dedicated member of Collar City Runners Club, he’s all about pushing limits and making every mile unforgettable. Kevin’s proudest moment? Shaving nearly 50 minutes off his marathon time at The Hartford Marathon in 2023, a jaw-dropping PR that proves his grit and determination. But what truly sets his heart racing is building connections through running with his tight-knit crew of pace-pushing pals. Lacing up his trusty Brooks Adrenaline or Saucony Guides, Kevin charges through miles with his Shokz headphones blasting a wild mix of pop and rock or the “Ali On The Run Show” podcast, keeping him tuned in and focused on every footstep.

Kevin lives for crisp fall days—think long sleeves, shorts, and crunchy leaves underfoot—but hot, sweaty weather? No thanks! 😅 Fresh off crushing his 9th Boilermaker 15K, Kevin’s 2025 is already stacked with finish lines, including all three races in the ARE 29.3 Challenge (Electric City 10K, Helderberg to Hudson Half, and Miles on the Mohawk 10M), the Singlecut 5K, and the Joe Manupella Memorial Run 5K. Now, he’s training for a half marathon PR this fall, eyeing the Mohawk Hudson Half Marathon. He has the Arsenal City 5K coming up in September and the Troy Turkey Trot 10K in November to cap off the year. Post-race, you’ll find him savoring a juicy burger and a cold brew from Brown’s Brewing Co.—the perfect victory fuel! 🍔🍺

Kevin’s love for running and building community makes every finish line a celebration! 🏅 From crushing PRs to cheering on his Collar City Runners squad, his passion is contagious. Join him at an upcoming race to witness his unstoppable drive and get inspired to make your own running memories!

Meet Justin, the marathon dynamo whose every step blazes a trail toward greatness! 🏃‍♂️ This guy turned his first solo-trained marathon into a 3:32:00 masterpiece at the annual Mohawk Hudson Marathon, proving he’s got the guts and the grit to conquer any goal he sets. Strapping on his Mizuno WaveRider 29s or Mizuno Neo Zens, Justin blasts through miles with Shokz headphones cranking the Jeremy Miller Podcast or Dustin Riedesel’s Looks Like We’re Running audiobook. He’s basically the DJ of his own epic run montage!

This year, he’s already crushed the Electric City 10K, Helderberg to Hudson Half Marathon, SingleCut Have a Drink on Me 5K, and Bacon Hill Bonanza 10K. Now, he’s gunning for the Boilermaker 15K this weekend, the Mohawk Hudson Marathon and the Stockade-athon 15K this fall, and—hold your leis—the Honolulu Marathon in December, running for the “Life Without Lupus Foundation” charity. His big dream? Nailing a Boston Marathon qualifying time, one determined stride at a time, with his Garmin Forerunner 265 keeping him honest.

Post-race, Justin celebrates like a champ with a juicy steak and some onion rings—because nothing says “I just crushed it” like a solid post race meal! Come cheer this unstoppable speedster at the Boilermaker 15K on Sunday, July 13th—his infectious energy will have you lacing up to join the party! 🏅
