The New Haven Road Race is governed by a Board of Directors. This board is comprised of leaders from the business, governmental, medical and running communities. They meet periodically throughout the year and weekly in the summer months. Each member is responsible for a specific aspect of the race and donates significant hours at board meetings, race functions and committees. Without the dedication of these people the race would not be possible.

John Bysiewicz has been the Race Director since 1989. His company, JB Sports, has directed road races full-time for nearly 30 years. John and his team, including Jody Damsky and Kaitlin Morgan, work year-round to ensure the success of the event.
