Catching up LIVE at ON Studios with NYC Legend, David Kilgore. Kilgore continues to RIP, take huge swings, and rally the run community to raise money for important causes. The mood was electric and we had people banging on the ON NYC HQ storefront windows in true NYC fashion.

We talk:

-OSR30 Race Breakdown (getting lost, staying ON BRAND) and the huge vibe that OSR Races bring

-GreenBelt FKT — Shore-2-Shore Race Breakdown. Partnering with Cooper from Trials of Miles Racing and Brenden Clarke, who captured the event

-Wings for Life World Run (@wflworldrun @wingsforlife) — a virtual global run sponsored by Red Bull to raise money for spinal chord research. Red Bull USA will have a car outfitted with DJ booth chasing Kilgore around NYC. David hopes to run 40 miles, starting from the iconic Tortoise and the Hare sculpture at Van Cortland Park, all thru NYC, hoping to raise much needed money for research. The event will be live-streamed on https://www.wingsforlifeworldrun.com

-His upcoming LA to Las Vegas Run—340 Miles—in May, with a goal to run it in just 3 days!

If you live in the NYC area and haven’t yet met David, please come to the Wed 6:30pm Social Run (many paces), which starts at the ON Running Store on Lafayette St where we recorded. Give this awesome human with a huge heart a follow on IG and Strava (links below to races we discussed and a bonus FKT around Manhattan!). I greatly appreciate David’s positive energy and hope you all enjoy this convo as much as we did!
