We’re incredibly grateful to NJ.com for taking the time to share Matt’s story and the reason September 11th will always hold such a significant place in our family and at Root Runners.

Tomorrow, September 10th, we begin our Mind Miles Initiative and the timing carries more meaning than we could ever put into words.

The night of September 10, 2001, Matt went for a run with his dad. It would be their last night together.

Over the years, movement became a way for Matt to navigate grief, protect his mental health, and keep moving forward. That experience is part of the reason Root Runners exists today and why we believe so strongly that movement is medicine.

Mind Miles is simply an extension of that belief. A way for our community to move together, support one another, and help make mental health care more accessible.

We’re sharing this story in hopes it reminds someone that there is strength in continuing to put one foot in front of the other.

Let’s move together, Register for our 30-day Mind Miles challenge -> https://rootrunners.com/mind-miles/. We start tomorrow!

Every mile matters.
Your mind matters.
You matter. 💙
