Hi everyone! My name is Nik, and I just moved to downtown Boston for work! I’m originally from the Chicago suburbs and recently finished grad school in California.

I first got into running a few years ago while living in the UK, where I ran my first half marathon. Since then, I’ve done a few more races of varying distances in Chicago and the Bay Area, and I ran the SF Marathon in 2021! Wasn’t sure if I was ever going to run another marathon after those hills haha, but following Tyler on social media and supporting some friends running the Chicago Marathon this past weekend has inspired me to do another!!

You can follow my (currently very inactive) Strava profile at https://www.strava.com/athletes/nikshiva

Looking forward to meeting many of you soon!
