🍁🏃🏾♂️Cross Country Athlete Profile🏃🏾♂️🍁
Meet Darryl Brown.
“I was raised by my grandparents in the mushroom capital of the world, Kennett Square. I started running distance in 10th grade and never looked back. I’ve been sponsored with both Brooks and New Balance, and now at the age of 38 I feel like I’m still peaking. This shows in my 2:19 marathon this past January in Houston, which came a year and a half after being diagnosed with a heart condition and coming off of a stress fracture. It’s hard to name one single accomplishment I’m most proud of because they do not define my career. My goal is to be an inspiration to everyone I know and as long as I continue to do that, then I have accomplished everything I’ll ever need.”
PRs:
5k: 14:45
8k: 24:30
10 miles: 50:40
Half marathon: 67 min
Marathon: 2:19
Darryl made it to our final round of Beat the Heat this summer, and we’re stoked to have him back for Cross Country. Best of luck!
