"It is such a fun race for parents. We are good friends from hanging out at Achilles workouts and we just love cheering on all of the kids. We make a lot of noise by the finish line."
— Dana, Achilles Kids Parent
Olivia joined Achilles Kids when she was around 11 because some friends of hers were running with the program. Her mom says running has improved her strength and confidence and has given her a point of connection with neurodiverse peers.
Now 18, she has run Hope & Possibility® many times. Her favorite memory? When Olivia's guides played a Katy Perry playlist (her favorite artist) for her the whole race and they all crossed the finish line singing to "Roar".
