How I Became a Runner

[@tyraphillips6762]

What a great story! I’m sure the PNW will miss you Alan but seeing your joy at being back in SoCal is also incredible. I’ve had an on/off journey with running and you’ve inspired me to turn it on leave it on this time

Alan, you are such a great representation of the Co-op family! Keep being you! Congrats on the new store! Happy Trails!!!!

Such a beautiful film. I resonate with it so deeply about running versus calling yourself a runner.

Best wishes in your new store Alan. I hope we still get to see your adventures.

Alan, thank you for sharing your story! It’s nice to be where you can hug your family every day. My running journey was interrupted by an injury about 8 years ago and I am back in the gym at 63 working toward getting back on the trail. Thank you for inspiring so many with your beautiful story and spirit.

It's been a pleasure to go along for the ride with Alan on his running journey the last few years. Here's to many more miles and adventures!
