Hi, my name is Jack (the guy in the middle). I am running in the 2025 Utica Boilermaker 15K Road Race. Between the 5k and the 15k, this will be about my 40th Boilermaker since 1983. I have run it fast, and I have run it slow. I’ve experienced boiling heat and cold pouring rain. What makes this time different is that I am running it to raise $500 to benefit the United Way of the Mohawk Valley. I grew up in an economically challenged environment. My family and I often relied on non-profit organizations and social service agencies to survive. This is my chance to pay it forward and help create a thriving community by connecting people, resources, and solutions throughout our community. A donation of any amount would be greatly appreciated.
