After many decades owning and operating a staffing firm for trucking companies, Jeremy Reymer was bothered by something he had learned through the experience: Truck drivers find it difficult to maintain healthy lifestyles.
So difficult, in fact, that the average life expectancy of an American truck driver is only 61 years old.
Upon selling his company, Jeremy was not content to just relax in retirement. He wanted to do something about the problem. So he joined with a physician named Mark Manera and established Project 61, which is dedicated to helping truck drivers improve their health to the point that such an alarming life-expectancy number might start to rise.
We recently wrote a feature about Project 61 for Caltrux Magazine, and we thought you would like to meet the man behind it – which is why Jeremy is this month’s guest on Six Questions with Dan and Michelle!
