He ran marathons for 10+ years before reaching his PR (while striving for an Olympic Trials Qualifier) in 2019, then completed the Badwater 135. Ethan now competes as a master runner in a diverse array of races. Collegiately he ran for Carnegie Mellon University works full-time as a mechanical engineer at Oak Ridge National Lab, and is an entrepreneur for a small business, The Long Run.
