My name is Jeremy Adams, and I’m running everyday to bring awareness to two critical issues: veteran suicide and teen suicide/mental health challenges. This mission is deeply personal. I’ve watched students battle depression, anxiety, and fear quietly. I’ve seen veterans struggle silently under the weight of invisible wounds. Too many lives have been lost. Too many families have been left grieving. And too many people are fighting alone.

A defining part of my journey is my experience as a world-record holder with the Old Glory Ultra Relay Team. I stepped in as an alternate runner, filling the gap when the team needed it most—and together we carried the American flag across the country, mile after mile, as a symbol of unity, sacrifice, and the unbreakable spirit of our veterans. That experience changed me. It taught me what it means to show up when called, to stand in the gap, and to carry something bigger than myself. It showed me the power of a mission and the responsibility that comes with it.
