Achilles New Jersey and Nashville to Host Annual Hope & Possibility® Races This Fall
Achilles International’s signature Hope & Possibility® race welcomes athletes of all abilities, from elite runners to walkers and wheelers. Founded in 2003, it is one of the largest inclusive races of its kind in the U.S., welcoming athletes of all ability levels and wounded, ill or injured veterans each June in Central Park.
Achilles Founding Chairman Trisha Meili’s best-selling memoir, I Am The Central Park Jogger: A Story of Hope & Possibility, was the inspiration for the race. Her spirit, passion, and determination have helped the race grow into a vibrant success in New York and beyond.
Our chapters in Nashville and New Jersey are excited to gear up for their very own annual Hope & Possibility® races this fall! See below for information on how to register and get involved.
