Biography
Michael St. Laurent
Co-founder
Runner since 1969
Marathons: 13
PR: BAA 1982: 2:35:45
I started running back in 1969, back when runners ran and raced in the thinnest of racing flats. After placing in local high school state meets he went on to lettering in XC at the University of New Hampshire. In 1976, Mike was lucky enough to wear test shoes for a small company, then called Nike. In 1980 he joined Nike and spent several years developing technical running shoes. One most famous, the Nike Pegasus. After Nike, Mike was the running shoe line manager at Saucony where he develpled among others the Shadow. After Saucony he headed up the running shoe line at New Balance. Mike's racing resume include seven Boston Marathon finishes, races from 1 mile to the marathon and even the 212 mile Reach the Beach Relays and a few runs up Mt. Washington. When he’s not running or going LOCO, Mike has coached High School championship teams as well as Jr. High and Hershey track. Currently he devotes his time to giving back to the local running scene at the high school level and spends time running with his family.
