BTRC Hall of Pain Inductees
Ben Brennan
Inducted, 2012
When the full posse of BT RunClub members could be counted on one hand, Ben Brennan came on to the scene. Quickly establishing a reputation for his consistency along with the rapid improvement in his running, Ben moved from 5k to 10k to half marathons in rapid succession. Bringing an entourage that all seemed to be his siblings, Ben was part of the formation of BT RunClub. When Ben’s brother, Jeff, died in 2011, we celebrated his life with the ‘Jeff Brennan Memorial Run’: a Thursday short intervals session where Jeff’s life is remembered – even for those who never knew him.
Ben’s contribution to the early days and his consistency on wild winter’s mornings and blazing summer’s days alike, makes him a worthy inaugural inductee into the BT RunClub Hall of Pain.
