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!
