Queery: Alex Wilson
Alex Wilson had long enjoyed running track in high school and long distance during his time at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. So it was kind of a no brainer when he saw a Blade notice in 1981 that a new gay running group was forming.
He’s been in D.C. Front Runners ever since.
The group celebrated its 30th anniversary last weekend. Wilson has since run seven marathons, competed in three Gay Games with the group and coached the ’98 team in Amsterdam. He was a coordinator in ’95, ’96 and ’97 and is the member with the longest continual membership.
