“Track Shack started a running and walking movement in Central Florida that has spread nationwide,” says Growing Bolder CEO Marc Middleton. “Growing Bolder inspires people to want to get active and Track Shack helps them take those important first steps to make regular exercise a fun and rewarding lifestyle. It’s a very complementary partnership that we think will help many improve their overall health and wellness.”

“We’re excited to partner with Growing Bolder,” says Track Shack co-owner Betsy Hughes. “We’re all about running and walking for fun and fitness. We’ve seen men and women of all ages transform their lives by simply getting off the couch and get moving. Together with Growing Bolder, we’ll be able to help many more.”
While it’s not necessary to ever participate in an event to be part of Team Growing Bolder, the first official event is the historic Zimmerman Kiser Sutcliffe Winter Park Road Race presented by Florida Hospital on March 12th in Winter Park, Florida.
The first official Team Growing Bolder sponsor is Morgan Stanley. Like Growing Bolder, Morgan Stanley believes that the rest of our lives can be the best of our lives as long as we take care of our health and our finances.
