How a Mother’s Encouragement Led to Her Child’s Love of Running
When Stephanie Jackson’s 8-year-old son, Omari, was diagnosed with Autism two years ago, she knew she needed to embrace every part of him in order for him to lead a healthy and happy life. She created Embrace Spectrum, a platform for sharing her experience raising a child with Autism. "I want to encourage parents, guardians and family members to embrace their neurodivergent loved ones,” she said.
Training in the Heat and Humidity
Training in the summer can be challenging for many runners living in areas with soaring temps and high humidity. When going out for a run in these conditions, keep two things in mind: Train by effort, not pace, and prioritize running safely by following our warm-weather running guidelines.
