The Run for Chief race is a 5K fundraiser race in honor of Jaden “Jay Chief” Woodard! Jaden had a transplant at the age of 13 and lived a life that touched countless people because of the strength and perseverance he displayed everyday. Jaden unfortunately passed away in 2021 at the age of 21.

In honor of Jay Chief's memory and the countless lives he touched, the Run for Chief race was established in 2023. Our mission is twofold: to celebrate Jay Chief's legacy and to raise funds for children and their families facing similar challenges at the Heart Institute at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.

Proceeds from the race are directed towards supporting families dealing with pediatric heart conditions. We work closely with the staff at Children’s Hospital to provide meaningful experiences and alleviate a small portion of the financial burdens for these families. Examples of our initiatives include organizing all-inclusive outings to Kings Island, providing personalized sports jerseys for patients, and arranging Christmas gift donations for patients and their siblings.

Sponsors will have their logos prominently displayed on the race banner as well as every t-shirt. Last year we had over 350 participants and are hopeful that number will grow this year.

We are focused on promoting healthy habits and believe that AG1 is a great example of that and would love to partner with you!
