Said Ahmed

Support Coach Ahmed for Boston City Council!

I came to Roxbury at the age of 12 as a refugee, and this community gave me a home and shaped me to who I am today. It was the many dedicated teachers and coaches of the Boston Public School system who pushed and believed in me. Their support propelled me to represent Roxbury and Boston on the world stage as a U.S. National track athlete.


After my athletic career, I wanted to return the support given to me. I became a BPS educator and founded the only free track program in Boston, Boston United Track and Cross Country. Through these I have worked with and mentored thousands of youth across Roxbury and Boston.


I was built by this community, and I am running for City Council to continue serving it. I am committed to working tirelessly on behalf of our neighbors to create a safer, more equitable District 7.
