Our Mission


Your Running Buddy was born through chance. Kiki and Kara met randomly at a brunch bar over baked doughnuts and iced coffees. Through small talk they discovered a mutual love of running. They made plans to run later that day. One year and many miles later, after battling weight loss, a severed ACL and The Boston Marathon; the pair is still pounding the pavement together.

Kiki and Kara know they couldn’t have developed a routine, stayed motivated, or persevered through the rough times without each other. They challenged and inspired one another. Through mutual goals, respect, and a natural competitive edge they grew as runners and friends. Kiki and Kara started this community to help connect runners and let them find individuals who share the same goals, skills, and availability as each other.

Your Running Buddy’s coaching services provide customized running programs with experienced professionals who run along side you and help you stay focused on personal goals. Whether you are looking for a coach or a buddy, our free online community can accommodate your running lifestyle. Set up your profile today and you’re running…buddy.

Part 3

While working at my cute little neighborhood bar I was given the task of interviewing potential new bartenders. It was three full days of mind-numbing candidates, before Darren walked through the door. I knew after only five minutes of talking to him; he was the one. Working in the restaurant industry for as long as I have, I like to think my judgment of character is pretty right on. I got my bosses to talk with Darren and he was hired on the spot.
