Our passion for racing and our dedication to sport helps us find ourselves, discover our strengths, overcome our weaknesses, and allows us to triumph! But what if for one day, it was not about us? What if for just one small moment, we put someone else's triumph ahead of our own!
Welcome to myTEAM TRIUMPH - Michigan Chapter! A non-profit organization started in March 2008 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. We are dedicated to providing the ultimate experience in road racing and triathlon sport to individuals with disabilities. These individuals would otherwise never dream of entering a race, let alone experience the energy of packet pick-up, or the thrill of crossing that finish line.
As a CAPTAIN, participants with disabilities get to do it all! They get to Captain a team of Angels through an entire race, guaranteeing them their moment of glory as they cross that finish line so many of us take for granted. Our Captains build amazing friendships with the Angels, accomplishing goals beyond their wildest dreams. When all is said & done, they end up having a once in a lifetime experience.
As an ANGEL, your ability to make available your talent as an athlete & your help in raising funds to support these events will provide lifelong memories for every Captain who could not participate in an event on their own. From the thousands of runners and triathletes who participate in the world's major races, a chosen few complete these events by pushing someone else ahead of themselves. YOU can be one of those chosen few who can cross that finish line knowing you will be helping every Captain's dream come true.
As the owner of this event, myTEAM TRIUMPH West Michigan Chapter would like to use this opportunity to raise funds to purchase a new race chair. With a cost of $5,000.00, any donation you make toward this purchase would be greatly appreciated!
