Runner Spotlight ✨
I’m Quintarus Thomas, and I’m honored to be running the Tokyo Marathon on behalf of Heal the Planet. My story began in the red clay of Mississippi, where my grandpa's hands, worn from a lifetime of tilling the earth, guided mine. He taught me about the rhythm of the seasons, the miracle of a seed, and the silent language of the soil. Those quiet mornings spent in his garden, nurturing life from the ground up, weren't just about growing vegetables; they were about cultivating a deep, abiding respect for the planet itself.
That early connection blossomed into a lifelong passion for regenerative agriculture and permaculture, a desire to heal the planet just as it had healed me. My journey led me to a career in water conservation and watershed protection, where I work every day to ensure communities have access to clean water while learning to use it wisely. But my purpose extends beyond a paycheck. It's about empowering others, from the youngest generation to my peers, to see themselves as stewards of this one-of-a-kind home. So, when the chance to run the Tokyo Marathon came, there was only one choice: to run for Heal the Planet. It's a way to put my feet on the pavement for a cause that resonates with every fiber of my being. Every mile, every step, is a testament to the belief that together, we can mend the world, one garden, one waterway, one child, one community at a time.
