#11: Getting Kids Active Every Day with Jacki Quinlan of Sports Backers

Our guest on this episode is Jacki Quinlan, Director of Youth Programs for Sports Backers. Jacki leads programs and events that create active living opportunities for thousands of kids across the Richmond region on an annual basis. She has spent most of her career working in youth programming and is a dedicated advocate for creating equity through active living. It was great to learn more about her work, her experiences, and her own active living pursuits, including an upcoming marathon and ultramarathon. You can learn more about the events we discussed, including Marathon Jr. and the Fall Fit Club, as well as Kids Run RVA, NextUp, and the Scholar Athlete Awards, at sportsbackers.org, or follow @KidsRunRVA and @SportsBackers on social media.
