When I was looking for a positive role model growing up, I have always looked to Olympic gold medalist @billymills10k for inspiration. I would often tell people I wanted to go to the Olympics just like him. Although life had a different path for me, his spirit and accomplishments opened my eyes to amazing possibilities in life - especially as someone who grew up on a reservation. Billy’s legacy has touched me and our community for many years and inspires Native kids to dream big. It’s a dream come true to have had the opportunity to combine our voices to talk about overcoming adversity and the courage it takes to become a champion, even through the toughest times. Billy has made his mark on the world, especially by giving back through his organization @RunningStrong4AIY We hope to inspire others to come together and #LeadWithLove, just like Billy’s story has inspired me to connect with you all. Big thanks to @ProcterGamble for bringing us together in support of Running Strong for American Indian Youth. Their donation will help Running Strong provide more families in need with clean water running on the Pine Ridge Reservation, a struggle too many are experiencing. #leadwithlove #ad P&G
