Chicago Coach Plans 3,000-Mile Trip To Inspire Kids

The Rogers Park resident will pedal 3,000 miles from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., stopping at several cities along the way to teach school children healthy activities and eating options. The mission fits into Schneider's role as founder of True Fit, a nonprofit that shows kids throughout the Chicago area accessible forms of health and fitness.

"The whole purpose is to show them practical ways to stay healthy and exercises where they don't need to rely on high-cost equipment or a personal trainer, and healthy eating tips," said Schneider, 28, who's also an assistant basketball coach at North Lawndale College Prep.
