Tank & Grizz Run for the Ladies
2 Beards, 4 Feet, 13.2 Miles, 1 Sole...
Working Hard... Or Hardly Working...
Hi I'm Tank. Hi I'm Grizz, and we are SoleMates...

We have little to no formal running training, in fact last time either of us ran... was for 8th grade student council, and we lost. But we are back and better than ever. As KidSpirit Staff we have both been involved with Girls on the Run, and that's why we are running for the Ladies; but not only are we running to raise money for the ladies of Girls on the Run, we are running for the benefit of the Ladies of Oregon State University... to give them something better to look at. We decided its time to put down the Doritos and pick up a less salted but not exactly healthier snack.

We are both excited and terrified to start the training process. With sneakers laced tight, beards trimmed neat, and sweatbands resting just above our brows... we decided it’s only fair to share our epic journey world widdde!! We will be VIDEO BLOGGING each practice! There will be tears...emotional breakdowns...and quite frankly we are worried about Tank's ability to finish practice one!

As you will come to see we are all about the good times and the jokes; but we both have seen first hand the impact that Girls on the Run makes in young females lives. We have also both coached with the Willamette GOTR and can't wait to give back to such an important program!

Support us supporting Girls on the Run!

We are not two men running, we are one Sole colliding for the bettering of our community…
