Underwood, who is originally from California, and Hefley, who is originally from New York, started creating Breakfast on the Run in Dec. 2023 after Underwood made a really good breakfast burrito at home.

He has about five years of experience in the restaurant industry managing places such as Quiznos, Subway and Port of Subs. Underwood has also worked in IT for over 25 years.

Hefley is a full-time student who travels to New York to help out her family. She was active duty in the army for four years and did much of the cooking for her peers.

In a few months, they hope to have a shed like structure on the property instead of tent for Breakfast on the Run.

“Our long term goal is to be a brick-and-mortar and to have a food truck or food trailer,” Hefley said.

She also wants to employee veterans.
