I started running to promote mental health. After completing my first mini marathon in May I found a passion for running. I was completely shocked by the turnout and support from the city of Indianapolis for that event. My wife is also a huge support and is an avid runner as well! When the opportunity came up to run for we run we rise. I honestly felt the calling to step up and support this non profit anyway I can! I have two young children as well. And this organization focuses on the development of youth. Which makes me proud to support anyway I can. I am super excited for this fundraising opportunity to help young runners thrive!
