S6 E31 Inside the 343-Mile Ride for 9/11 First Responders — Suzanne Stone, Livestrong CEO
from Responder Resilience
Twenty-five years later, 343 still means something. It's the number of FDNY members lost on 9/11. Now it's also the number of miles a five-day ride will cover, from Boston to the 9/11 Memorial in New York City.Suzanne Stone, President and CEO of Livestrong, joins Responder Resilience to talk about the First Responder Ride for Resilience: why it exists, who's riding, and what it means for a first responder community still absorbing the cost of that day, and every day since.Livestrong has spent almost 30 years working the "soft side" of survivorship, the part that isn't clinical. For first responders, that means occupational cancer risk baked into the job itself, families left without a playbook, and a culture that doesn't always know how to ask for help. Suzanne breaks down what Livestrong is building specifically for fire, police, and EMS. That includes a culturally competent survivor's guide, Ellis (their AI-powered survivorship companion), and a fertility preservation discount network covering 150+ clinics nationwide.The ride itself runs September 6 to 10, 2026, gathering in Boston and finishing at the 9/11 Memorial and Battery Park in New York. It arrives September 10 so active-duty riders can be back at their firehouses on the anniversary itself.**Resources for Responder Wellness:**• Book: Helping the Helpers https://a.co/d/dm0VS4Q• Free App: CRACKYL http://crackyl.respondertv.com• Fitness: FightCamp (code RESILIENCE for 10% off) http://joinfightcamp.com/rrContact Responder Resilience:Phone: +1 844-344-6655Email: [email protected] website with past episodes and more: https://www.respondertv.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ResponderResilienceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/responder-resilience-podcast/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/responder.tv/LIVESTRONG:🔗 Ride details & registration: https://911ride.org🔗 Learn more about Livestrong's work: https://livestrong.org📫 Questions or want to get involved: [email protected]
