Racing to break records tonight, but we’ve got an even bigger mission on our minds (and hearts). The athletes of the bowermantc want to show our belief in the fact that Black Lives Matter. We want to use our last 2 meets of the season to raise funds and awareness for The Equal Justice Initiative, a great organization that is working to protect basic human rights for the most vulnerable in our country by providing legal representation. If you haven’t seen and/or read “Just Mercy,” now is the time. I recommend the audiobook because Bryan Stevenson, the author and founder of EJI, reads his own words about how and why he started the organization and I found it extremely impactful.
The bowermantc is going for American (and even World) Records in the men’s and women’s 4x1500 tonight. You can donate a number of ways including by pledging a dollar amount for every cumulative second the records are broken, by donating a flat amount, or by entering any of the auctions to bid on items my teammates and I have donated.
I am pumped to chase fast times, but even more motivated by the opportunity to do some good and help provide legal aid to those who have been wrongfully convicted, unfairly punished, or abused in jail. This is just the beginning of what this group of athletes plans to do to make an impact on our world, and we are ready for the challenge that lies ahead.
Click the link in my bio to learn more about our event, EJI, and to donate.
Tune in live at 8pm PST tonight on USATF.tv or watch tomorrow on the Bowerman Track Club YouTube channel for free.
