KultureCity Fit is the brainchild of KultureCity co-founder Dr. Michele Kong and NFL legend Tiki Barber to merge philanthropy with physical fitness through exercise, diet and community.
This idea was conceived in 2016 when they ran the Boston Marathon together, where every step represented a forward motion toward a more inclusive and accessible world. Ever since then, KultureCity Fit has been joined by athletes of all abilities, from all around the world, to Make the Nevers Possible™!
Our KultureCity Fit ambassadors use their running or athletic platforms to push the inclusion mission forward.

Who is KultureCity Fit?
KultureCity Fit is a collective group of individuals who are fueled not just by the desire to be better runners, swimmers, cyclists or athletes, but to use their passion to promote acceptance and inclusion of everyone, particularly those with invisible disabilities, and sensory needs. Our athletes come from all walks of life, from professional athletes, to artists, musicians and working parents.
The KultureCity Fit team is also a truly inclusive team, consisting of members who are neurodiverse and neurotypical!
Raise funds while staying active
We will use the KultureCity Fit platform to fundraise for our Sensory Inclusive™ initiatives. This has a tremendous direct impact on promoting inclusion and sensory accessibility so that everyone can be included in everyday public activities such as visiting a museum, attending a basketball game, enjoying a music concert, or even just going to a restaurant for a nice meal.
Funds raised will also allow athletes to support their neurodivergent team mates and make ‘the nevers possible’ for them!
The philosophy of KultureCity Fit is simple
We can achieve anything, even the impossible, one step at a time. It starts with having the courage to take the first step.

Fitness is about the journey that shapes us, bringing us to the moments that define our strength and purpose. It’s about showing up, pushing limits, and giving it everything we have—not just for ourselves, but to inspire and make a difference for others. As athletes, we have a unique platform to amplify awareness and drive change. By using our passion and perseverance to support KultureCity, we can create a world where inclusion and accessibility are not just ideals but realities. Every step, every rep, and every effort can raise awareness and funds to break barriers and empower those with invisible disabilities. Together, we can climb mountains and cross oceans for a cause bigger than ourselves.
Michele Kong, M.D.
I spent most of my life being an athlete, so I know well the thrill of the arena. Running is less about the arena, and more about the journey... and in a marathon, that journey is both singular and collective. You're lost in your mind as your body endures but driven forward by the energy of those around you. Running takes passion! Running 26.2 miles for a cause, though, is all about compassion.
