GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - When Jack Doles decided to run in the 2010 Fifth Third River Bank Run, he was doing it for himself. What he didn't count on was being inspired by his charity partner.
In his most recent Road Warrior blog, Doles wrote , "Some of the most inspiring athletes I've had the pleasure of meeting in my 20 years at WOOD-TV, have come from the GRWSA.
"That's why I'm proud to run this race for all of them.
"As I train for the 25k, I'm going to raise awareness for the mission of the GRWSA.
"I'm going to introduce you to some of the athletes who've inspired me. Take a look at the story of Joe Burmania, and I promise you'll be inspired."
