What inspired you to want to do the 1000 Mile Challenge?
First I think it’s great for the kids to be able to do something they couldn’t if it weren’t for this challenge. And second more of just a bucket list thing. Third, I’m really competitive so I just want to see how I far I can push myself and team to achieve what we want have for goals. Fourth, it’s just a wicked cool event I want to be part of, and I say “I Did that!”
