On October 22, 2022, Live Good, Inc held its first-ever Live Good Marathon to celebrate the history and origin of the company's founding in San Francisco ten years ago.
SAN FRANCISCO - Virginir -- The 5K marathon course started at the former United States Army airfield Crissy Field, which is now part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, taking runners across San Francisco's landmark Golden Gate Bridge. Participants took in spectacular views of the bay, including Alcatraz and Angel Island, and trekked to the finish line in Sausalito.
Before joining the crowd and running alongside participants, Jennifer Chi, Founder of Live Good, opened the race with the following inspiring and powerful speech.
"A Celebration of Love and Unity"
Thank you so much for coming to the very first Live Good Marathon!
The theme for this marathon is "A Celebration of Love and Unity" because we believe that love is real and can be a powerful force in bringing people together to do great things. At Live Good, we believe in building bridges and lifting every community up together as one. We especially believe in the power of women and Live Good today is celebrating all of the contributions women have made to our society.

A lot of people have asked the question, "Why are we holding our marathon in San Francisco?"
Live Good was founded in San Francisco 10 years ago - right here where we are standing. I was living in this city back then and walking on the beach with a view of the magnificent bridge when all of it hit me - the incredible diversity, the progressive history of a culture dedicated to civil liberties and equal rights, and the sense of freedom and love unconditional for all.
Ten years later, our passionate and young team wanted to bring everything full circle by holding a marathon over the Golden Gate Bridge.
Thank you so much for joining us today on a run to celebrate all of the values we believe in. Let us start our special marathon by walking down to the beach, together as one, in love and unity.
Respectfully,
Jennifer Chi
Founder of Live Good
