Ginormous thanks to Claudia for the donation!
To be honest, I get a thrill every time I get a donation. The amount doesn't matter... Every one's support is important to me. That everyone is willing to share, to help others when we all are hurting these days is just wonderful.. truly...
Where else did you expect me to be?

.....Raising $62,000 for the Challenged Athletes Foundation....

....And cause I like to think everything is possible....

Why $62,000?
1. $100 x 620 miles = $62,000
2. Adaptive sports equipment is expensive and not typically covered by insurance.
3. One "entry" level adult handcycle can cost over $2,500.
4. A rugby chair can cost over $3,000
5. A prosthetic "running" leg starts at about $10,000.
6. Because disability isn't fair, doesn't discriminate, and we want to level the playing field
7. Because I like to set the bar high
Will you support me?
