Meet the Unstoppable Jean Driscoll

In our October newsletter, we’re proud to introduce Jean Driscoll, a true champion on and off the course and the newest member of the 26.2 Foundation Board of Directors. An eight-time Boston Marathon® winner and global advocate for inclusion, Jean’s journey is one of extraordinary determination, leadership, and impact.

This edition also celebrates Team Inspire’s global reach, as our charity teams now run in iconic races around the world - from Boston to Berlin, Tokyo, and beyond. Plus, we share updates on Bobbi Gibb’s “The Girl Who Ran” sculpture installation in Hopkinton, a new feature from writer Carolyn Su highlighting runner Stephanie Diaz, and a spotlight on TSgt. George Banker’s latest book, Marine Corps Marathon Honor and Pride.
