Description

The "Running Under the Influence of Coach Brian T. Feeley 5K" was organized in 2017 as a way to pay tribute to an extraordinary man while raising money to support local children in his honor. Because of the community's support of this race, Team Feeley has been able to give a scholarship to an outstanding Hodgson senior each year, support local youth sports, and donate two adaptive bikes to local children with disabilities. All the proceeds from the race will support these and other opportunities in our local community. The race is intended to be a family friendly morning of fun and fellowship with friends new and old.

About Brian

Coach Brian T. Feeley was a part of the running community for almost 40 years. Beyond completing many local road races he also completed 30 marathons. Many family and friends looked to Brian when they started to run for training advice and support. Brian was proud of all of these accomplishments but he had a special place in his heart for his role as coach. He started the Hodgson Vo-Tech Cross Country team 27 years ago. His runners brought home various championships over the years but Brian took more pride in his role as mentor to his team members.
