Crew Gaines might only be 10-months-old, but Joanna and Chip’s little guy is already a marathon star! The HGTV stars, who are soon to start their own network, took to the streets over the weekend—running for a good cause.
The Gaines family doesn’t take their fame for granted. After meeting Gabriele “Gabe” Greenwald—a professional runner and cancer patient—in 2017, Chip and Jo decided to help the Brave the Like Gabe Foundation (which supports cancer research and benefits patients) by hosting the Silo District Marathon weekend in their hometown of Waco, Texas. While Chip ran the full distance last year, this year the proud dad toted his tot along for the 13.1-mile half-marathon run.
Not only did Chip and Crew get in on the marathon action, but 12-year-old daughter Ella also raced for a good cause! Even though Joanna didn’t run this year, she posted an oh-so-sweet message on Instagram, writing, “I was so proud of @chipgaines and Ella (and baby Crew) for running the half marathon today and killing it!”
Even though we’re loving the completely cute pics of Chip and Crew, the photo op wasn’t the best thing to come out of the Gaines’ weekend run. According to Jo’s IG post, the marathon raised $300,000 for cancer research. Way to go!
