Never one to deny the power of running and the community, still he was overwhelmed by over a quarter of a million dollars raised for charities from the runners of the GVRAT. Food banks, anti-human trafficking, and animal shelters have received generous support from the GVRAT participants.

Innumerable stories of the participants finding a path through life in the face of the pandemic; death of loved ones, job losses, emotional issues from different levels of isolation.

Laz finds that running allows you to process life:

“WHEN RUNNING, YOU’VE GOT THE TIME TO YOURSELF AND WHEN YOUR BODY IS WORKING YOUR MIND IS FREE”
