Meet Joe
Joe Riess is an endurance athlete from Beavercreek, Ohio, who is passionate about making a difference. Last year, he ran 326 miles across the state of Ohio to raise money for the House of the People, a non-profit organization in Dayton that provides food, shelter, and support to refugees from Rwanda.
This year, Joe is back with another challenge – to swim across Lake Charlevoix in Michigan.
