Dave McGillivray will be speaking to the Southborough community on Tuesday, Sept 12th at 7:00 pm at Trottier. Dave is the race director for the Boston Marathon and has run the marathon every year since 1973. He has been a runner for over 5 decades and has completed 165 full marathons, including running 7 marathons in 7 days on 7 different continents and has run 9 Hawaii Ironman Triathlons. Dave is a generous philanthropist and the list of charities he supports is very long. The mission of the Dave McGillivray foundation is to empower youth to increase physical activity, expand literacy, and build community and self-esteem through running, reading, and performing random acts of kindness. Runners, athletes, non-athletes, adults, and youth alike will all love hearing his story how he started running at the age of 12 because he was too small to succeed in other competitive sports and has made running his lifelong passion.
