My workout group on occasion does a bootcamp run in our downtown area called giving back. Simply handing out a pair of socks goes a long way. Bless you!

MC wrote: Your story reminded me of a similar one when i ran the peachtree road race years ago. We ran past the shepperd center (for spinal injuries) and a large group of patients in wheelchairs was cheering us on. I vowed that day to give back to them what they gave to me, but have since "gotten busy" until i read your story. Now, you have inspired me to follow through! Funny how we are all connected one way or another! Thank you!

Nas wrote: As a fellow runner myself i admire what you did for that man, in my country people who live on the streets are usually dangerous and very difficult to help. So its nice to see that its not like that everywhere and some can give back.

As a runner, it often makes me wonder about the fact that we pay to run and burn off calories (among other things) when so many people around the world (and around the corner) would consider it a true luxury to be "stuffed" and "need a run". You did the right thing; thank you.
