Western Mass Runners' Hall of Fame
Inductees
This Hall of Fame started as a vision several years ago when a few of us in the running community saw the need for a platform to recognize the talent and dedication of our fellow runners. The vision came to fruition with the induction of our first class in March, 2020. Since that first class, the Hall has continued reviewing outstanding nominees and is committed to adding new Inductees at least every two years.
On 8 March of 2024, our third class will be inducted and it will include individuals who made their marks in high school and on the roads as well as our first "team".
Inductees of the third class include;
The Brian E. Goddu Volunteer Award
In March of 2022, the 2nd Class was inducted, which included individuals who left their marks as runners, race directors and race reporters, and we acknowledged our "The Brian Goddu Volunteer of the Year".
Inductees of the second class included:
The Brian E. Goddu Volunteer Award
In March of 2020, our first class consisted of members of the running community who were pivotal in laying the foundation for running in Western Mass and represented Western Mass on a world stage.
Inductees of the first class included;
