That's Kendall Schroeder, one of the creators of the Hungerford Trail Races. He was on the bus ride when the race was invented, and he's the guy who hand-crafted the logo. Although his schedule doesn't permit him to RD year-round, he's up until 2:00 a.m. with us on race morning, cutting orange slices and getting things organized -- and then he's back at PT Plus by five to start our big day.
Race weekend is an absolutely insane 72 hours, and we really couldn't pull it off the way we want to without his indispensable work.
As a lifelong runner and a two-time Cross Country Coach of the Year, Kendall has been a tireless supporter of runners and the running community for years. He puts in these crazy hours because he enjoys seeing participants reach for and attain their dreams, and to be a part of making it happen.
Sign up for the 2016 Hungerford Trail Races, and when you see him at the finish, remember to say, "Thanks!"
