Meet David Fuentes, the new Core Class instructor for Jack & Adam's. David grew up in Boerne, Texas and started running his sophomore year in high school. After winning back to back state titles his junior and senior years he went on to Texas State for one year where he ran cross country/track. He finished his last 3 years at St. Edwards.

David graduated in 2009 with a Computer Science degree from St. Edwards. He is currently an IT Administrator at the City of Hutto. In August 2009 he got hooked up with Jack at Jack and Adam's. He began his road racing career with Jack at the 2009 Silicon Labs Marathon Relay. David was then introduced to Derick from Durata Training, who he currently runs for. Under Derick he has won the Austin Half Marathon twice (2010, 2011), ran a personal best of 1:06 in the Half Marathon so far at the St. Louis Half Marathon and ran a strong 2:31 at the Chicago Marathon for his first Marathon. David qualified and raced in the U.S. Half Marathon Championships in Houston. He's sponsored by Mizuno Running and plans to keep running faster in the half marathon and full marathon.
