Ross Ridgewell Victorious Over 15,000 Atlanta Runners
(KSN) Atlanta, Ga. > At the bequest of my daughter Natalie, I am sharing this information about her boy friend Ross Ridgewell. Natalie met Ross three years ago when he was a student at UGA on a track scholarship. After graduation in May, Ross was hired by the marketing firm Niche Cubed and represented their corporate team in the recent Kaiser Permanente Corporate Run/Walk. This article appeared in The Atlanta Journal/Constitution.
Ross currently lives in Atlanta. He may compete in the 2012 Olympics for his home country, Australia, sponsored by his company Niche Cubed.
We are very proud of you, Ross!
