Dr. Jeremy J. Bauer, former Associate at the Corvallis consulting firm, Hayes+Associates, Inc. has within the last 20 months, not only started his own consulting company, Bauer Forensics, LLC, and moved to Seattle, but has earlier this week run the Boston Marathon for the 5th time, setting a personal best time for the 26.2 mile course of 2 hours and 48 minutes, among the top 4% of finishers.

Dr. Bauer ran his first Boston Marathon in 2013, the year of the bombings along the finishing stretch.  “My experience in 2013 bonded me forever to Boston and the towns all along the route. This year, as always, the crowds were deafening, the community support was incredible, and my legs were screaming ‘enough!’ after Heartbreak Hill. I can’t wait to do it again!”

The Boston Marathon, the world’s oldest marathon, is one of the most prestigious long-distance running races in the world and was first held in 1897.  The 2019 Boston Marathon was the 123rd edition of the event, and included 26,737 finishers (26,632 runners, 60 wheelchair participants, and 45 handcycle participants).
