As a young boy growing up in Dublin, I always dreamed of competing with the best runners in the world. Over the next few decades, I went on to earn five national gold medals, eight Northeast conference gold medals, several international gold medals and a fourth-place finish in the Olympic Trials.

I founded Racefaster with a desire to offer other runners the same training I had benefited from as an elite athlete. I began coaching individuals and small groups and quickly scaled with the help of a great coaching staff, expanding into youth programs and race management. My team and I have helped thousands of runners of all ages develop their own passion for the sport and hosted tens of thousands in our local races.

When Lindsay Finkel signed up for coaching in 2014, we felt an undeniable connection. Our marriage was more than the union of two people – it was the catalyst for Racefaster Retail. Lindsay’s manufacturing and importing expertise and my knowledge of running gear proved to be a winning combination, and together we design and develop all of the brand’s apparel, accessories and sneakers.

 Racefaster has become a one-stop shop for runners seeking high-quality gear that is both performance-oriented and fashion-forward. Our commitment to making the best running products on the market means running thousands of miles in our clothes and sneakers. It means constantly iterating, testing and improving. And it means winning races wearing our gear before making it available through our own stores, select retail partners and online.

We are proud to be building Racefaster our way, authentic to our beliefs:

·      We believe in elevating all runners through grassroots support in local communities.

·      We believe in meticulously crafted, high-performance products born from a deep understanding of athletes' needs.

·      We believe in supporting every runner who dreams of fulfilling their potential.

  Thank YOU for believing in us.
