Jacked for Justice is the first in an ongoing Campaign I’m launching called Jackedtavism — where I pair my endurance training with a cause that I care about.

Through this series, I’m turning miles into meaning, using fitness as a form of philanthropy. Jackedtavism is about pushing limits for a purpose — raising awareness and dollars while building a stronger, more just world, one rep and ride at a time. This isn’t just about getting jacked — it’s about justice. I believe in showing up for our communities with strength, consistency, and heart. Join me in creating a more jacked and just world.

The first event I am doing is the the Jacked for Justice Ride On Sunday July 27th, I’m riding 100 miles from Milwaukee to Chicago in pushing my body to the limit for something far bigger than me: food justice, health equity, and a friend I deeply respect — Dominic Long.

I’m proud to work at Food For Health, Wisconsin’s first and only medically tailored meal program, which delivers nutritious, healing food to individuals living with chronic illnesses. Every day, I witness the power of food to transform lives — and the devastating consequences when access is out of reach. In a system where health is too often determined by zip code, income, or race, we believe food is medicine — and access is a right.

That’s why I’m riding.

Dominic is living with diabetes, a condition that disproportionately impacts our Milwaukee community. We met in 2021 at a community book bag giveaway I organized with Rooted and Rising, and later worked together at Fathers Making Progress. Over the years, I’ve watched Dominic give his heart to the community — serving, mentoring, showing up. Now it’s time to show up for him.

This ride is more than a physical challenge. It’s a call to action. It’s a chance to fund an entire year of medically tailored meals for Dominic — meals that can support healing, stability, and quality of life.

Food is medicine. Access is a right. And change starts with action.

I’ll do the ride.

Will you help fund the mission?
