Today is a reflection on the life and legacy of Jeff Galloway, a beloved figure in the runDisney community who passed away on February 25, 2026. Natalie shares personal anecdotes about her interactions with Jeff over the years, highlighting all his encouragement and the positive impact he had on her running journey, as well as what she did to honor his memory during Princess Half Marathon Weekend 2026.

Much love to the Galloway family in their time of loss.
