My Mission

We all have a mission, and mine right now is to run fast and enjoy the journey but I have a bigger mission than running a PR.  My bigger goal right now is to INSPIRE.  Inspire someone, anyone, just one person to do something they didn't think they could do.  Inspire one person to reach for a dream they have stuffed under their pillow and forgotten about.  Inspire one person to have the courage to show everyone you can do it.  Inspire one person to take that risk that others shy away from.  Inspire one person to realize no matter how many times you fall, every time you stand up you are stronger than you were before. 

So my first way to hopefully inspire someone is this Saturday, June 11th at the Harry O'Neill Memorial 5k.  Come out this weekend and walk, trot, jog, or run while showing your support for the Herricks Community.  I will be there on Saturday, not running, but cheering you on through the finish.  Not only is there a 5k run at 9:30am, but there are fun runs for kids of all ages beginning at 10:30am.  Bring the whole family and celebrate being healthy and active.  This is the perfect excuse to get outside and lace up those shoes.  Josh Merlis, of ARE Event Productions is doing the timing so we are guaranteed a great time!  No need to be fast, just come out and find the joy in the Herricks Community and being active!  Hopefully, one person will be inspired to roll out of bed a little bit earlier on Saturday.  Online registration is now closed, but you can register the day of so just come to the Herricks High School and bring a friend!
