About
We are Rob and Brooke, a husband and wife team who just love the excitement of race day.
As athletes ourselves, we have run countless races from 5k’s all the way to ultra marathons and Ironman races. The traditional race started to get a bit lackluster for us and we began dreaming about more interesting events for those, like us, who wanted something a little different.
That’s how Athena Clydesdale Racing came to be. We got out start race directing the Healthy Kids Race Series before moving to adult races beginning with the Woodbury Wobble. It’s on from there!
Rob got his start in racing when Brooke was headed out for a local 5k race. The post-race food included a pretty decent spread of ice cream. Rob was in.
As a collegiate football player at Bemidji State, Rob loves a sporting event. Having completed an Ironman, multiple half marathons, and an endless number of 5k’s, Rob loves the athletic thrill of race day.
Rob is the timer, organizer, course setter, and MC for Athena Clydesdale Races.
When not racing, Rob is a real estate agent at Robert Selb Homes.
Brooke loves to run. Proving to be seriously uncoordinated at racket and ball sports, Brooke started running in high school with a focus on high jump at Ithaca College.
Racing many marathons, a few ultras, and lots of 5k’s, Brooke loves the challenge of race day, the fun of a race course, and the community environment.
Brooke is the logistics coordinator, swag gatherer, schedule keeper, and social media manager for all race events.
When not racing, Brooke creates kid movement printables at Move Play Go and healthy living content at Wrecking Routine.
Zoey, William, and Hazel make Athena Clydesdale a truly family-owned and operated racing company.
You are sure to see our little ones helping out at the races and cheering on the runners.
We look forward to racing with you!
