Starting an Unexpected Running Crew Helped Him Accomplish New Heights: Make Every Mile Count
"Running has just completely changed my life." How starting a running group helped Marvin Garcia make every mile count.
Over the past couple of months, we've shared stories about incredible individuals who make every mile count. This week we're sharing Marvin Garcia's story. Marvin proves that making every mile count isn't just about individual performance—it's also about elevating those around you.
Marvin first turned to running as a way to lose weight. After he lost more than 60 pounds, he didn't stop there. He wanted to introduce running to others so it could change their lives as it did for him. With this inspiration, he started the Good Vibes Track Club. Marvin has built an incredible community. "We've become family," he says. "We built something that'll hopefully last forever." In fact, their motto is "We are all we need." This expresses their shared feeling that they can accomplish anything with each other.
This story is a part of our Make Every Mile Count series to inspire, excite, and ignite our running community. Want to be featured? Send an email to [email protected].
