To kick off a program promoting physical fitness, Irving shared some wisdom and experiences he hopes will help motivate kids to reach their potential. He urged them to listen to their parents, follow their own path and reminded them that life’s journey never ends. “I’m still figuring it out,” he said. “I’m still you.” Teaming with Kids Foot Locker, Irving visited one of the city’s Boys & Girls Clubs to launch a six-week fitness challenge which promotes a healthy lifestyle and encourages kids to excel outside and inside the classroom.
