This week we have Raymond and Breck of Run Too Hard join us in discussing their run club and how they got their start as a group in Chicago.
Raymond Melencio is originally from the Bay Area and moved to Chicago in 2010. He is one of the founding members of Run Too Hard and current Co-Captain. Raymond started running in his 30’s, and his running journey is directly tied to the club, beginning in 2019 when the club was established. He completed his first marathon in 2022 (Chicago) and plans to run more in the future. (@raymond_pm)
Breck Mahoney was born and raised on the southside of Chicago in Hyde Park. During a 10-year stint of living in Cali, where he completed his undergrad, MBA, and began a successful career in Ad Sales, living near the water introduced a strong passion for running. Now back in Chicago, living in the Humboldt Park area, he is one of the founding members of Run Too Hard and current Co-Captain. He has a few Half Marathons under his belt, but with the motivation of the amazing RTH fam and Chicago running community, he hopes to complete his first marathon (Chicago) later this Fall! Let’s get it! #stayhumboldt (@b_reck)
