I want to help people feel what I feel while running, joy, the wind and the unforgettable feeling of finally crossing the finish line! It's funny how life gives you subtle nudges along the way to do something bigger than yourself. I have a couple of friends that have become paraplegics due to tragic accidents or disease and my brother has been involved with UofM's Adaptive Sports and Fitness Program and a co-worker finally gave me the ultimate nudge last year to get involved. They both have been inspirational in how they're helping people move despite having disabilities.
