Brian Mister started by inquiring if anyone wanted to join him for a run—kicking off brewery run club culture in Charlotte. His passion for bringing people together has led him to create the city's keystone race that shuts down a major beltway, giving participants a new vantage point of the QC.

To inspire the many running communities around the city, he knew he had to join them. Today, Brian is a leading advocate for race sustainability and ensuring that the starting lines of Charlotte's races reflect all of Charlotte.
