Congrats to the 2017 Aiello Inspiration Team!

Thank you all so much for sharing “What’s Your It” submissions.  Your stories and experiences moved us and we are excited to share them with this amazing running community as we lead up to race day in Hartford on October 14.

Look for photos, quotes and stories through the coming weeks, with a “What’s Your It” feature to help us all start the week strong on Motivation Monday.

Today, we are excited to share the final selections of the 2017 Aiello Inspiration Team at the Eversource Hartford Marathon and Half Marathon. This year’s team includes inspiring individuals who run for many different reasons - they run to honor loved ones who have passed away, they run for weight loss and health, they run to overcome illness or difficult times. Their intrinsic motivation will help carry them to the finish line of this year’s event in Hartford.  

2017 Aiello Inspiration Team members were chosen from countless submissions that answered the question “What’s Your It?”, showing incredible ambition, drive and commitment in their lives to the “It” that they run for.  Members represent a vast array of backgrounds, experiences, ages and running goals.
