Jon Ober
Big Guy Reviewer
Jon accidentally got into running after impulsively committing to run a marathon in 2010. After losing 100 pounds and having a hell of a debut, he decided to stick around. He runs with the Faster Bastards and his happy place is Patapsco Valley State Park where he leads the Thursday night Ober Hills run. When he isn’t running he’s looking for cats to pet.
