“Cortland really believes in giving back to the community and helping our residents achieve their fitness and wellness goals. Supporting RunCharlotte is a wonderful way of combining the two,” says Sarah Connolly CPM®, Managing Director at Cortland.
Program allows residents to reach their fitness goals with free classes, discounted personal training and nutritional consultations, and a Cortland Run Club.
Cortland also shows its commitment to the community by rallying its residents, including an effort last year that collected more than 14,000 pounds of food for local food banks and diverted 126,000 pounds of clothing and textiles from area landfills.
“We are delighted to have Cortland as partners to celebrate healthy lifestyles and support our community with their generous donations,” says Tim Rhodes, Six Pack Series Race Director. “Their contributions to local communities and care for eliminating food and textile waste are great for everyone and our environment, too.”
