The Story of BORN (Boys on a Run)

We (Logan Zahn, Zeke Grimmet, and Jesse Carson) led the team, Capital Homeschool, to be some of the best homeschool distance runners in decades. As a result, the three of us started a YouTube channel called Trio. We would create shoe reviews, stereotypes, race recaps, and vlogs. After Logan and I graduated from high school, we couldn't consistently make content together, resulting in us renaming ourselves to Boys on a Run. consisting of Logan, Zeke, Jesse, and Brody Raliegh

​

From early childhood, I (Jesse Carson) discovered a passion for sewing and had a dream to start my very own clothing brand. I pitched the idea to the boys, and they were immediately on board. When I was struggling with what to name it, I knew I wanted to relate it to the channel, then it hit me: b.o.r.n. abbreviates boys on a run, and instantly knew I had found the name. because I knew we were born for this, and born to run. The driving force behind this dream was twofold: first, so many mainstream clothing brands are hostile to Christianity and conservative values. All four of us boys have given our lives to Christ, so our faith is very important to us. Second, the corrupt fast fashion industry is very common in the mainstream clothing industry. Fast fashion often supports child slave labor, which brings us to the biggest issue of our day: Human trafficking. Third, fast fashion consists of nothing but synthetic materials containing microplastics, which affect of skin and the environment. This is just the beginning of our journey, but the futuristic dream is...

pro America, 

Pro Christian,
