The Fairfield and Bridgeport Firefighters welcomed Matt Gregg, a retired Apple executive who is running across the country to bring further attention to the associated higher cancer rates in firefighters. Matt today started off his run at the Home Depot in Fairfield onto Fairfield Avenue to State Street, to Water Street to Fire Headquarters. Matt zig-zagged across the country starting in California and will run back home in New Hampshire.
