We had a special guest at Team Hope Circle-Up this morning! πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈβœ¨

A huge thank you to NamaStay Sober for leading us through a quick yoga session to start the day. It was a great opportunity to slow down, stretch, and connect before heading into the rest of our morning.

We're grateful for community partners who help bring wellness, movement, and mindfulness to our members. πŸ’™

Yesterday, Back on My Feet had the opportunity to participate in the Somerville Road Runners’ 26x1 Mile Club Challenge Relay which is one of our favorite events of the year!

What makes this race so special isn’t just the miles; it’s the community. Building community is at the heart of what we do, and we’re grateful to be part of a running community that consistently shows up for one another.

This year, when we found ourselves a few runners short, members of Wicked Running Club and Somerville Road Runners stepped in without hesitation to help complete our team. That spirit of support, connection, and teamwork is exactly what running is all about.

Thank you to everyone who ran, cheered, and helped make this day such a success. πŸ’™πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

What a great weekend we had at Boston's Run To Remember!

We had an amazing group of 15 volunteers up early on Sunday to support Race Bib Pick-Up for both the half marathon and the 5 miler, bringing energy, encouragement, and smiles to every runner who stopped by.

We also had 6 members of our community take on the 13.1miles β€” showing determination, commitment, and the power of community every step of the way.

We are grateful for everyone who volunteered, ran, cheered, and supported along the way. This is what community looks like.

Thank you to Boston's Run To Remember for allowing us to join you for this amazing event. We are already looking forward to next year!

BOMF had a great day at the Boston Bulldogs Running Club Run for Recovery 5K.

Our Back on My Feet crew showed up with heart, energy, and community spirit, and we're especially proud of all the first-time 5K participants who crossed the finish line today.

Events like this remind us that recovery, connection, and movement truly change lives.

Thank you to the Boston Bulldogs for creating such a meaningful space where everyone is welcomed, celebrated, and supported. We had an amazing time and are grateful to be part of this incredible community.
