Sean joins us from just up the road in Charlottesville, where he was an All American at UVA in the 10,000 meters. He now runs for Ragged Mountain Racing and boasts PR’s of 3:46 for 1500m, 13:39.26 for 5000m and 29:31 for 10,000m. He’ll aim to break 4:00 for the first time at the Sir Walter Miler.

5 Things About Me: Sean Keveren

1. I competed for 5 years at the University of Virginia, specializing in the 5000 and 10,000. I currently run for Ragged Mountain Racing, a post collegiate team based in the same town as UVA, Charlottesville.

2. My mile PR was set in high school, so needless to day I am due for a new one.

3. I was raised in California but went to high school in Nashville, but I unfortunately wasn’t able to acquire a sexy southern accent.

4. If I wasn’t a runner, I would love to be a professional golfer. I’ll probably take up speed golf whenever I hang up the spikes for good.

5. I married my wife, Mary, last summer. I am eternally grateful for the hundreds of miles she has biked next to me in training.
