Veterans Will Rise To The Challenge Last weekend we were able to have the honor to host Team Red, White & Blue Old Glory Ultra Relay runners at the campus to meet and prepare together for the run across America in 2025. During that time, the runners took on Team RWB’s December Monthly Mission - a 5-mile run in honor of the brave men who fought in the 5-week Battle of the Bulge. On 16 DEC 1944, the Germans launched a counteroffensive in response to the Allied Forces’ successful D-Day invasion and advancement into the Ardennes Region of France. It was the last major German offensive of World War II and it lasted 5 long, very cold weeks, ending 25 JAN 1945 in the Allies’ favor. But it came at a heavy cost. We honor all those who fought and will never forget. Veterans, when brought together, are a force to be reckoned with; as we were able to see throughout their time at UHP in preparing for the Old Glory Ultra Relay.

We were honored to host the incredible Team Red, White & Blue Old Glory Ultra Relay runners this last weekend. Their strength, resilience, and dedication embody the spirit of our nation’s veterans. These amazing individuals remind us of the power of community and purpose, both on the relay and in life. Thank you for inspiring us and for representing the enduring strength of our veterans across the U.S.
As a marketer, there are very few times in your career when you know you're working on something truly special. I'm fortunate to be working on such a project right now - Team Red, White & Blue's Old Glory Ultra Relay. In May 2025, 12 courageous military Veterans will attempt to set a world record by carrying a single American flag across the nation in a transcontinental relay from San Diego, CA to Washington, DC. The relay will challenge the limits of human endurance as they traverse diverse terrains and weather all conditions, day and night. The flag will never stop moving until their mission is complete. The goal? Cross the country in just 17 days while raising $1 million for Veterans. This past weekend, I met the incredible men and women who will take on this challenge as well as the crew who will support them in it. And I was truly humbled. They're all Veterans and incredible athletes but not a single one of them is running this relay for themselves or the fame or glory. They're running it for their fellow Veterans and all Americans. It's no secret that our country is in a health crisis. And, at Team RWB, we believe Veterans are uniquely positioned to help lead us out of it. These 12 athletes and their 3 crew chiefs are honored to represent those already working on this goal and hope to inspire others to step up and do the same. Thank you to everyone at the University of Health and Performance for hosting us this weekend and supporting this epic event. You guys rock! Want to get in on the action? Drop a comment or send me a note. We need a strong alliance of partners to help this team complete their mission.

Military service affects more than just the service member. It's a family affair and both our military and civilian leaders have a duty to ensure family quality of life is a critical part of the mission.

He joins Fran Racioppi from University of Health and Performance on Veterans Day to share the focus for the upcoming term.

Military recruiting is affected by the civilian job market. It’s a simple fact. As America’s military and civilian leaders seek to tackle the recruiting challenge, quality of life for our service members is a critical component of the manning strategy. During our Veterans Day 2024 kick off of our partnership with the University of Health and Performance, I spent some time with Senator John Boozman, an Arkansas native and the ranking member of the Senate Committee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs and Related Agencies Appropriations. Senator Boozman is the son of an Air Force Master Sergeant and has made national security a top priority of his service. The Senator and I discussed his initiatives to improve quality of life for service members and their families, why building world class facilities is critical to recruiting, and how national security is the foundation of a strong economy. They also shared why all leaders need to bring the country together to get things done for the American people.

Unity starts with recognizing the strength in what connects us. Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders joined us at UHP to talk about bringing the country together, empowering transitioning Veterans, and creating opportunities across the state. She shared why she’s a strong advocate for up-skilling Veterans and how UHP is shaping their future with fitness, leadership, and entrepreneurial training. -- #Veterans #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Community
America has an opportunity to come together. Most often the differences that separate us are smaller than the ties that bind us. The first step is realizing that our real enemies are not our own people. Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders joined me from the University of Health and Performance outside Bentonville, Arkansas to share her outlook now that the 2024 election is decided and why it ‘s incumbent upon all leaders to bring the country together to get things done for the American people. The Governor and I also discussed why she’s a staunch advocate for up-skilling transitioning Veterans and is working hard to ensure Arkansas has the resources and job opportunities to bring Veterans to the state. Plus we showed how the University of Health and Performance is leading the way in providing the critical fitness, leadership and entrepreneurial training Veterans need to start the next chapter of their lives.
