The Raleigh-based company operates running races, such as marathons, throughout the Carolinas and New York. Capstone operates races such as the Bull City Race Fest and the Charleston Marathon while serving over 110,000 runners annually.
John Kane founded Capstone in 2011 and also acts as a chairman and CEO of the company. Kane graduated from North Carolina State University in 2007 where he majored in sports management and lettered on the football team.
Kane serves as a member of the North Carolina State Ports Authority Board of Directors and as a public member of the North Carolina State Bar Disciplinary Hearing Commission.
