Keith found his passion for running during his sophomore year of track at Woodinville High School in Woodinville, WA. He continued on to compete as a walk-on on the University of Oregon XC/track programs for two years before finishing his college career with the UO Running Club with a 10,000m PR of 31:22 and 5000m PR of 14:52.
After working and traveling around the country, the trails and mountains began calling for him in 2012. That year included an 11th place finish at the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship in Utah. He’s been hooked since; continuing to work on his versatility including maintaining his road/tempo speed, training in the mountains and playing outside. In addition to representing Team7Hills in 2017, he will also represent Seattle Running Club and Brooks Running.
