“When I run in the Garden of the Gods, I do my most creative thinking. It’s where I fathered the Shape Up Across Colorado program.”
Participants are encouraged to run, walk, hike, swim or wheelchair 400 miles, the distance it would take to cross Colorado. The retired supervisor of kindergarten-through-12th-grade PE classes says he believes in “walking your talk.”
“I continue to downhill and cross country ski, hike and work out three days a week to keep up with the grandkids.”
