ON Athletics club (OAC) is a training group of professional distance runners sponsored by On. The team is coached by Dathan Ritzenhein[1] and was founded in August 2020 with eight original members. OAC trains primarily out of Boulder, Colorado.[2] There is a sister club titled "OAC Europe" coached by Thomas Dreissigacker.[3][4][5]
Colorado Sub 4 Mile
On August 3, 2020, Joe Klecker and Olli Hoare became the first people to ever break 4 minutes in the miles on Colorado Soil. The long streak of no sub 4 miles is attributed to the elevation of the state.[6]
