In this episode of Runnah, I sit down with Ron Chapman, a familiar face in the Cape Cod running community who somehow manages to wear approximately 47 different running hats.
Ron is an Army combat veteran, marathoner, endurance triathlete, race director, and longtime member of the Falmouth running community. We talk about his journey through endurance sports, including marathons, Ironman triathlons, and what continues to motivate him to take on new challenges.
We also chat about what it's like being involved behind the scenes of some of Cape Cod's favorite races. Ron serves as the Race Director for the Paul White Memorial Road Race and Surf Drive Mile, the Course Coordinator for the Cape Cod Marathon, the Military Liaison for the Falmouth Road Race, and the Vice President of the Falmouth Running Club.
Oh, and somewhere in there, we also talk about his new role as the Race Director for the Ruck4HIT and why giving back to the veteran community is important to him.
From racing to race directing and everything in between, this episode is a fun conversation with someone who has truly made running and endurance sports a huge part of his life.
