Meet the Manager
Tom B.
Manager
Following in his big brother Matt’s footsteps, Tom started running at an early age. Running cross country at Scranton High, Tom led his team to a undefeated senior season. Continuing the trade in college at West Chester U, Tom ran the steeplechase on the track and captained his cross country team.
After graduating college with a BA in History, he spent some time pursuing his dream of cleaning toilets at a ski resort («ski bumming») for a season pass in Utah. Tom returned to the East Coast to learn the specialty running retail craft and trained under his brother at Philadelphia Runner. There he learned the skills and knowledge he applies every day in Brooklyn.
After helping his older bro Matt start Scranton Running Co in 2010, Tom again scratched his itch for big mountain skiing and moved to Mammoth Lakes. When the opportunity to open another store with his brother arose, Tom returned to the east coast, this time in Williamsburg, Bklyn. They’re bringing the community feel to the BK.
