🕊️ About Nick Pipino
In 1992, Nick's life was tragically cut short outside Cavanaugh's Restaurant & Bar, where he worked while pursuing his undergraduate degree at Drexel University. In keeping with Nick's love for the outdoors, the run has been organized since 1993 as a way to make something positive come out of Nick's untimely death.
