This year our Wonder Ball King is Paul Carrozza - Founder of RunTex, Marathon Kids & Council Member of The President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. He is also super active in the community, running and beyond. RunTex supports non-profits when they want to get in shape, and they also put on 5ks or 10ks to benfit these non profits.
I asked Paul some questions about his involvent in the Wonder Ball this year and why he felt it was important.
He has known Meredith Cooper, one of the founders of Wonders & Worries for a long time and so has been a fan of hers & the organization for quite a while.. A a father of 3 kids, and husband to Sheila, who had to have open heart surgery as a result of an infection, his motivation to be King and support Wonderball is based on understanding the need to support families at the time of need. He feels Wonders & Worries is a very important service!
He's a super nice guy, i happened to bump into him & Sheila at Wholefoods and introduced myself. And yes they were buying healthy foods. You may also find them at fave restaruant Santa Rita after a good long run on the roads of Austin!
