The vision and passion behind The Run Hub
I started running at 43. Couldn't make it around a track. One year later I ran my first half marathon. The year after that, my first marathon in New York City.
Eleven years later and I've run 23 marathons, 4 ultramarathons, and all 6 Abbott World Marathon Majors across three continents. I'm a certified travel advisor and an RRCA certified running coach.
And for every single one of those races, I pieced together the travel from scratch.
Hotel search. Flight timing. Race website for packet pickup hours. Google Maps for the start line. Another search for shuttles. Every race. Every city. Every time.
After 23 marathons I finally asked: why does this still work this way?
No travel platform knows your race exists. They don't know where the start line is, when packet pickup closes, or which hotels are actually close to the finish line — not just "downtown." You do hours of work and still wonder if you got it right.
That's why I built The Run Hub. Pick your race — we show you flights timed to race day, hotels ranked by proximity to your actual start or finish line, and race logistics built into your plan. One platform, built by a runner who has lived every part of this problem.

I'd love to hear about your race travel experiences and how The Run Hub can help you achieve your running goals.
"One booking mistake can ruin six months of training. I kept watching other runners live that nightmare — and I kept living it myself. I built The Run Hub so that never has to be you."
