UTICA — Tim Reed recently announced that he is stepping down as president of Boilermaker Road Race Inc., after 10 years at the helm of the nonprofit.
“It feels like it’s a great time for me to give someone else a chance to lead this fantastic organization,” Reed said in a news release issued by Boilermaker Road Race Sept. 11. “I’m excited to move on to the next big thing in my life and hand the reigns over to our new leader.”
The Boilermaker 15K race, one of the more popular road-running races in the U.S., is held annually the second Sunday in July in Utica. Total participation exceeds 21,000 runners, including the 5K race, kid’s run, and walk. It has more than 5,000 volunteers. The organization also engages in year-round community development efforts including promoting wellness.
“We are indebted to Tim for both his vision and business sense he has brought the Boilermaker” said Fred Matt, chairman of the board of the Boilermaker. “He has left the organization in a very strong position from both a structural and financial perspective. The future for the organization is exceptional with the immense local heritage, support of the community, runners and sponsors.”
