For the LOVE of Running

There is something we all have in common: we all love running! But we all found our love of running in different ways. When did you fall in love with running?

Starting Strides | Where It Began

People often ask Jerry and I how the Starting Strides program began. The idea came to me the same place where most of my ideas come from: on a running. For those of you who don’t know, Starting Strides is a program through that J&A Racing Foundation that makes running accessible to students who have barriers that prevent them from participating in the Operation Smile Shamrock Final Mile.
