We have well over 100 years in combined walking and running experience. But neither of us has ever run a marathon. That's going to change on November 1 when we will be
running (and maybe walking) in the 2026 NYC Marathon, "racing" for and with Back on My Feet, a nonprofit that empowers
people to break free from the cycles of poverty, homelessness, and/or addiction
through the power of running, community support, and employment
resources.
