POSITIVELY JAX 🏃 More than 3,500 people participated in this year’s Tony's Turkey Trot 5K, making it the largest turn-out of the event’s history.

That was cut short just two years later in 2011 when a drunk driver slammed into Tony’s car while he was sitting at a red light. Tony suffered a traumatic brain injury.That led to his daughter Anne-Marie Tucker having to become his permanent caretaker as Tony needed that care 24/7. Tucker started the race as a way to honor her father and fight for others with brain injuries to get the help they need.
“Even though it is a loss and it was so hard to deal with because of the consequences of his disability, I have been able to reach so many people, and now people make this Thanksgiving their annual family event,” Tucker said.
