NAPA, CALIFORNIA—Blistering Pace Race Management is thrilled to announce that Hannah Sconzo has joined the staff as Director of Marketing, bringing valuable perspective and expertise to the organization’s list of clients and events.
Sconzo brings a wealth of experience in creative marketing both in the road race space as well as in the wine industry. Most recently, Sconzo was the Marketing and Creative Manager with the Boisset Collection and its portfolio of Napa Valley-based brands.

In addition to her brand marketing experience, Sconzo previously served as Marketing Coordinator for Motiv Sports and the Wine Country Half Marathon series and its seven races throughout North America.
“I am beyond excited to join Michelle and the Blistering Pace Race Management team,” Sconzo said. “Blistering Pace is well-known in the road race industry for maintaining a high standard of professionalism and I look forward to providing best-in-class marketing services for BPRM’s clients.”
Since its inception, Blistering Pace has specialized in providing race management services to non-profit legacy events. Race proceeds are used to fund a variety of charitable initiatives within these communities, and marketing is a critical piece in driving race registrations, which fund the philanthropic mission of BPRM’s non-profit clients.
“Having known and worked alongside Hannah for many years on races in Northern California and beyond, I am excited to welcome her to our established BPRM team,” La Sala said. “Hannah’s expertise and knowledge of marketing and the running industry coupled with her creativity and skill is unparalleled.
