Join us for the What the Ruck, KJQ Memorial Run, a special event celebrating the life of a beloved member of the upstate NY running community. Kevin not only enjoyed his weekend runs but dedicated many of his years to the Siena College Rugby team. A program that he helped build into the National Championship winning program it is today. He brought joy and laughter to everyone around him, and now its our turn to honor his spirit.

The 5k run and 1 mile walk will take place on April 28th, on Siena College Campus, with start time of 9am. In true Kevin fashion, we encourage participants to wear a costume or funny outfit to pay tribute to his unique and fun-loving personality. Lets come together as a community and a family to remember Kevin and all the laughter he brought to our lives.
