Who We Are

Peter had many friends, in all aspects of his life. The committee that organized the Hearts and Soles 5K is made up of running friends and collegues from work. Some of us knew Peter exclusively in the work environment, others solely from running and racing, and some (the lucky few) got to spend time with Peter both inside and outside the walls of corporate America.

In one way or another, we were all infected by his passion for running and getting others involved in physical activity. Running races can be extremely competitive, but Peter always focused on how others did and how they were improving. He never touted his own quite successful race performances, instead almost forcing others to take the glory. Through his activities in organizing corporate teams and with running clubs, Peter always encouraged participation in and the enjoyment of running events. He was more concerned with the personal benefits derived from running than with running for the sake of winning.
