Robert "JARRIN" grew up athletically challenged and hated sports. In high school, he was peer-pressured into joining the wrestling team and proved to be an awful, ill-suited wrestler. He then took an extended hiatus from competitive sports until 2001 when he had eaten himself into oblivion, resulting in high cholesterol and borderline hypertension.
By 2004, he was cycling competitively, running for recreation and dabbling in sprint triathlons. In November 2007, he decided to focus exclusively on running and discovered the Georgetown Running Company. Within months, he improved his 10k PR by a minute, his half marathon PR by 2 minutes and cut his marathon PR by 10 minutes.
JARRIN is an attorney by education, and employed by Qualcomm Incorporated as Senior Director of Government Affairs. Known for his exceptional use of four-letter words, "Gentleman JARRIN" is an avowed RUSH fan and root beer connoisseur who trains bonsai trees, enjoys digital photography, serves on the Board of Directors for D.C.'s oldest non-profit Latino senior center and hates Klim's cockatiels.
