Chase

Chase started running in high school at a friend’s suggestion and quickly fell in love with the sport; the workouts, the friendships, and the freedom to head out alone or share miles with a group. Competition and camaraderie carried him through college, where he ran on a scholarship.

After graduation, Chase stepped away from running for a bit. It took another friend and a local 5K to rekindle his competitive spirit and remind him how much he’d missed it. Since then, he’s been working toward consistency, finding new motivation in challenging himself, exploring unfamiliar places, and giving his mind room to wander or quiet down.

Originally from Charleston, SC, Chase moved to the Boston area with his wife in 2021. A longtime road runner, he’s been spending more time on the trails close to home. He aims to run at least one marathon each year, with a long-term goal of completing one in every state, but will happily line up for almost any distance, from a beer mile to a marathon.

Through shoe reviews and educational content, Chase shares his experience and enthusiasm with runners of all levels.
