We thank our unbreakable first responder community

SEPTEMBER 11TH | This 9/11, we're taking a moment to honor the brave men and women who race to the frontlines and help others every day.

"It's really rewarding to get to help people when they are in need," he says. "I work with a lot of great people who make it barely seem like work most days. Best job I ever had!" | | | | Billy Richards | | Renowned for carrying the American Flag at his races to honor military, law enforcement, and first responders, Billy is also a decorated veteran.
