Ryan Eiler

Ryan Eiler combines competitive road running with a role reviewing running gear for RoadTrailRun. His 2024 Boston Marathon supplied a particularly visible breakthrough: he finished 15th overall and third among American men. RoadTrailRun interviewed its longtime contributor after the race, connecting the familiar reviewer with a performance near the front of a major marathon. [1]

The Boston Athletic Association’s racing-team roster identifies Eiler as a Penn State graduate from Holland, Pennsylvania. His racing has extended across the B.A.A.’s road events: its 2026 10K field notes record appearances in both the 2024 and 2025 editions, alongside his Boston Marathon performance. New York added another major-marathon marker in 2024, when he ran 2:13:36. That result is also listed in the B.A.A.’s professional-field information, putting his New York run in the context of an established regional and national road-racing career. [2][3][4]
