Harvey Lewis (ultrarunner)

Harvey Lewis, an ultramarathon runner and high school teacher from Cincinnati, Ohio, is known not only for his athletic achievements but also for his distinctive lifestyle choices.

[2] In addition to his running career, Lewis is a full-time social studies teacher at the School for Creative and Performing Arts, balancing his teaching responsibilities with his training and racing schedules by run-commuting to work.

Lewis has competed in well known events such as the Badwater Ultramarathon, Arrowhead Region Ultra and the Marathon des Sables, as well as lesser known endurance events such as the Ultra Gobi,[5] where part of the challenge for the 50 participants is in self-navigating and self-supporting the 400 km course (250 miles) through the Gobi Desert in western China, with temperatures ranging from below freezing to 100 °F.

Lewis has a legacy with the Long Haul 100 Mile trail race in Land-o-Lakes, Florida having won the event on two occasions.

Robinson (then known as Boynton) was a nonviolent protester who helped organize the 1965 march, and was one of several marchers beaten unconscious by state troopers and county officers at the Edmund Pettus Bridge six blocks from its start.

[39] "I believe God kept me alive 99 years so I can share my story with young people," Robinson told Lewis.
