Although there will be a record-breaking number of people at the starting line this year, we will be without one special runner; Ralph Capps, President & CEO of the Wake County Boys & Girls Clubs, who passed away peacefully earlier this week.
Ralph spent 50+ years of his career leading, guiding, and mentoring young people, staff, and board members at the Boys & Girls Clubs serving Wake County. He grew the membership from a few hundred boys at one club to thousands of boys and girls at eight clubs. He was a role model of consistency coupled with an infectious can-do attitude. He had zero tolerance for anything less than his or your best and he inspired everyone to exceed the expected in favor of the possible.
This year, weβll be thinking of Ralph and honoring his legacy as we race and raise money for the club members at the Wake Forest Boys & Girls Club ππ§‘
