With strong support from his friends and a passion for health and his community, Smith refuses to let glioblastoma stop him. Instead, he has picked up the pace and is organizing another race – Julian’s Run – to raise money for children with cancer, with plans for the inaugural event to be held in early 2019. “Your energetic leadership and passion for physical fitness allowed your reach to extend beyond the bridge run,” wrote former Charleston Mayor Joe Riley Jr. “You ushered in a new era of consciousness about the importance and joy of physical fitness. Countless lives have been enhanced because of your leadership. People have lived longer, able to see their grandchildren born and graduate from school, share long lives with families and friends and have the joyful satisfaction of physical activity. This was all because of your leadership.” As he continues to fight his battle with cancer, the Charleston community and beyond is running right along beside him, grateful for all he does for the betterment of others.
