Coach’s Corner

Team McGraw: Kevin Leathers

We welcome Kevin Leathers to Team McGraw as an experienced coach and advisor to all of our runners.  As much as we want to see fundraising goals eclipsed and awareness of our mission heightened, we also want to see each of our runners meet their own personal goals of completing the New York City Marathon.

While Kevin will regularly contribute to the “Training Tips” section, click to read his welcome letter to the runners, as well as his story about his recent Boston marathon adventure.

Here are some of his running credentials:

Runner for 28 years
Triathlete for 20+ years
Completed 12+ marathons
Qualified for 2007 Boston Marathon
Ironman Triathlon Finisher
U.S.A Triathlon All American 2006
Member of Los Locos Triathlon Team

As one of the participating runners, I am also deeply honored to serve as the coach for Team McGraw.  Now, I not only get to “check off” one of my lifetime goals of running the New York City Marathon – I get to help each of our runners achieve their own running goals of crossing that finish line in Central Park.
