The more people who beat Greg Olsen in this 5K, the better for his cause

Chalk these up as words you might not expect to hear from a guy who can dash 40 yards in about 4.5 seconds:

“I don’t run. I walk,” Greg Olsen said. “I’m not a big runner.”

But in this case, the Carolina Panthers’ star tight end isn’t talking about football; he’s explaining what he’ll do after the starting gun goes off at the second annual The HEARTest Yard + Showmars 5K on June 17.

“I meet and greet, and mingle, and thank people, and share our story, share our mission, what our program is, the impact that we try to make,” he said.
