What prompted you to Run for a Reason?
When and why did you start distance walking/running?
During some winters I develop inflammation and joint swelling. I started walking distances, with some running, to slowly increase my stamina and strengthen my legs.
What hopeful signs you are seeing in autistic children?
Dr. Faber has a long history of helping the autism community throughout his career. His Pittsburgh Marathon journey in 2024 may involve a combination of walking and the occasional jog, and we deeply appreciate every step.
