Imagine running a 4:08 mile and then having your coach tell you that you didn’t make the varsity team. Eric Boucher doesn’t have to imagine—it happened to him. But this wasn’t any varsity squad, it was the legendary University of Colorado track team. Eric’s journey to that moment began when he showed up to a [...]

And less than 80 minutes later the first club members crossed the finish line, completing two loops in Central Park. Thom Little finishing 14th [...]
