FA, LR coach named to Maine Running Hall of Fame
Kevin McDonald of Lovell will be one of nine new inductees into the Maine Running Hall of Fame (MRHOF).
The MRHOF induction cycle occurs every two years coincident with an induction ceremony. However, due to the coronavirus pandemic, the MRHOF induction ceremony is being postponed until 2021. A specific date will be determined at a later time.
McDonald began his running career at age 13. He established himself as a strong competitor at Lawrence High School in Falmouth, Mass., and went on to Springfield College. McDonald has coached both indoor track and cross-country teams for both Lake Region Middle School and Fryeburg Academy. He has also served as the meet director for Lake Region Middle School track events.
McDonald directed Team Dirigo at the USATF Cross-Country Nationals. He has served as the co-director for the Lovell 4.5-mile road race and has been involved with the Maine USATF for the last two decades.
The Maine Running Hall of Fame (MRHOF) was established in 1988 with the intent to recognize individuals and events that make significant contributions to the sport of running in Maine.
