Yo, Eight12 fam! We’re proud to share that JarDan Ramon, Founder and Executive Director of Eight12 Run Club, was invited to speak at the Young Men’s Empowerment Summit and he brought TiAckquien Douglas Coach T, Eight12’s Director of Coaching and Programming, to join the conversation! 🔥👏
Their session, “The Come-Up Is a Team Sport,” explored how growth is strengthened by discipline, support, and having people in your corner. JarDan shared why he created Eight12 Run Club and why giving back to the Evansville community matters to him. Coach T built on that conversation, sharing how structure, discipline, and mentorship can help young people grow.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to connect with the young men who attended and share how Eight12 brings people together through movement, wellness, and community.
A special thank-you to all the partners who sponsored this incredible event: the YMCA of Southwestern IN , Sima Strong, United Way of Southwestern IN , City of Evansville - Government, and Amplify. We appreciate everyone who made this meaningful day possible! ❤️👏
The Come-Up Is a Team Sport! 💯
Run together. Rise together. The Eight12 way! 🏃♂️➡️🏃♀️➡️
